The font is better to use in general headings, which mostly people use in business cards, banners, product names, and so forth. There are many general reasons to use this font.
The bold Property, with slightly smooth edges of this font, makes it extra transparent, and it attracts the users. Moreover, it does not look old fashion though, and as per my ideology, this font will be on the top for years to come.

Just look at this font, how beautiful it is looking, right..? I see this font will be good for people to use this on beauty products like soaps, shampoos, creams, or anything.
