What does Vanille Bourbon smell like?

Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind and summer chosen least. It leans towards leisure, evening and daily wear. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Although it is classed as unisex, most voters read it as feminine.

The scent is a floral built on a citrus lift. Heliotrope and orchid give a powdery, creamy sweetness, while tiaré keeps the floral side in front. Rosewood and amber add a spicy, woody warmth, and citron leaf lightens the sweetness. The gourmand side leads without feeling heavy. Trussardi Inside and Profumum Roma Alba have a close profile.
