What does Pure DKNY - Vanilla / A Drop of Vanilla smell like?

It starts with vanilla, and the heart brings Bulgarian rose, freesia, lotus and orchid. Aquatic and fresh accords keep the flowers light, while sandalwood and amber add a woody warmth at the base. There is a slightly synthetic sheen to it as well.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin and reads as calm. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily, leisure and business wear lead the occasions. Most votes call it feminine. DKNY Pure DKNY - Rose / A Drop of Rose and Intimissimi Sensuale have a close profile.
