What does Fève Tonka de Canaima smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. More voters call it feminine than masculine, though a fair number see it as masculine.

It opens with bitter almond and violet, then moves to patchouli, tonka bean and rose in the heart. The base of vanilla, labdanum and sandalwood softens everything into a creamy, powdery, woody warmth, with floral and spicy touches keeping the sweetness in check. Initio Psychedelic Love and Joop! Le Bain (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
