What does Nouveaunille smell like?

Vanilla runs through it: Tahitian, Bourbon and Hawaiian vanilla sit together, joined by caramel. Fenugreek and myrrh add a spicy, resinous depth, while sandalwood, gaiac wood and oud give a smoky woodiness and musk softens the whole.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick winter and autumn, and place it in the evening or on a night out, with leisure wear close behind. Masculine and feminine votes are level, so it reads as open to either. Imaginary Authors Memoirs of a Trespasser and Maison Margiela By the Fireplace have a close profile.
