PowderyWhat does Forever Red Vanilla Rum (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
The notes read as a single whole: vanilla rum, blackcurrant creme and black lily. The vanilla rum carries the sweetness and gourmand character, the blackcurrant creme adds a soft fruitiness, and the black lily deepens the texture. Among the accords, fruity and sweet lead, while spicy, oriental and powdery sit in the background, with a synthetic edge.
It is classed as a feminine fragrance. Its sillage is rated good, though the few votes behind that rating call for caution. Bath & Body Works Forever Red (Eau de Parfum) and QueenB Black Lily have a close profile.
