What does Ascetic Vanilla smell like?

It opens with sandalwood, musk and amberwood laying a woody base. In the heart, caramel, vanilla cream and jasmine take over, pushing the scent towards sweet and gourmand, while spicy and smoky accords temper the sweetness. Milk in the base wraps everything in a creamy finish.

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick winter and fall, and leisure, evening and night out lead the occasions. Feminine votes edge ahead on character, though masculine votes are not far behind. Karzaz Vanille Crème and Maison Asrar Milky Way have a close profile.
