What does A Whiff of Waffle Cone (2020) smell like?

Vanilla and salted caramel give the scent a soft, gourmand sweetness, and cream gathers it into a smooth, creamy surface. Vietnamese cinnamon adds spice, orgeat syrup rounds out the sugary texture, and amyris leaves a woody, faintly smoky ground. The notes read as a single whole rather than a top, heart and base.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and leisure and evening wear lead. It reads more feminine to most voters, though a fair share of them call it masculine.
