What does Ain't That Sweet smell like?

It opens with myrrh, sweets and Sri Lankan cinnamon, where spice and resin cast a warm shadow over the sweetness. The heart turns creamy with lily, date and praliné. In the base, nutmeg, bourbon vanilla absolute and sweetened condensed milk soften it into a woody, oriental warmth.

Most voters pick autumn and winter, with leisure and evening wear leading. Longevity and sillage are rated good. Voters call it modern, and masculine and feminine votes sit close together, so it reads as genuinely unisex. Lattafa Khamrah and Rabanne Pure XS Night have a close profile.
