What does Vanilla Milk smell like?

It opens with milk, frangipani and peony, soft and lightly floral. At the heart, Bourbon vanilla and cocoa deepen the sweetness, while musk, benzoin, amyris and sandalwood settle it onto a woody, powdery base. Spicy and smoky touches stay in the background.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans towards leisure and daily wear, though it works for evenings too. Voters read it as somewhat feminine, yet it wears as unisex. Its profile is close to Borntostandout Dirty Rice and Shay & Blue Salt Caramel.
