What does Divine Vanille smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays close without filling a room. Most voters pick fall and winter, while summer trails far behind. Evening, night out and leisure are the occasions it leans towards. It does not settle on one gender, with masculine and feminine votes almost level.

Vanilla leads, gourmand and creamy, spiced by cinnamon and black pepper. Frankincense and patchouli add a woody, slightly smoky base, while osmanthus absolute and clary sage soften the sweetness. The whole stays warm and oriental. Al Haramain Haramain Amber Oud Tobacco Edition and Initio Side Effect have a close profile.
