What does Winter Délice smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, with most voters scoring longevity high. The vote count is small, so these ratings are a tendency rather than a firm verdict.

Gingerbread and tonka bean give it a sweet, spiced warmth, while Norwegian pine and mugwort pull it toward green. Labdanum and Somalian frankincense add a resinous, faintly smoky depth, and the accords also include powdery and oriental touches. Parfum d'Empire Wazamba and Alkemia Magus have a close profile.
