What does Decembrie 89 - Freedom Elixir smell like?
Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters pick winter and fall, with evening and night out the leading occasions and leisure wear also possible. It is unisex, read as masculine and feminine in turn, with a modern feel.
Lemon, orange and apple open on a bright fruity note. Vanilla and hazelnut then sweeten the heart, and the base of Bourbon vanilla, vanilla absolute and rum settles into a creamy, spicy warmth. S.A.C.K.Y Miraj and Ellis Brooklyn Vanilla Sin have a close profile.
