CreamyWhat does Vaniteese smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick autumn and spring, though winter has a fair following. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, and sits comfortably at the office too. Most character votes call it feminine.
The top has hawthorn, orange blossom and mimosa; in the heart, ambrette seed, lilac and orris root add a powdery softness. Vetiver, cashmere wood and musk ground the florals in a woody, creamy base. Narciso Rodriguez Narciso (Eau de Parfum Poudrée) and Kayali Musk Santal | 34 have a close profile.
