What does Nuts / Happy Nuts smell like?

The nutty edge of sesame is softened by honey and caramel, while pistachio cream and almond add a creamy texture. Rum and vanilla keep the sweetness warm, and patchouli, tobacco and gaiac wood give it a woody, slightly spicy base. Green and synthetic accents take the edge off the sugar.

Voters rate both longevity and sillage as good. Most pick winter and autumn, and lean towards nights out and evenings. It reads more feminine to the largest share of voters, though a fair number find it masculine. Nobile 1942 Il Capriccio del Maestro and Giardini di Toscana Bianco Latte have a close profile.
