What does A Whiff of Waffle Cone (2023) smell like?

Cream, orgeat syrup and salted caramel build a sweet, creamy core, softened by vanilla. Vietnamese cinnamon adds a spicy warmth, while sandalwood leaves a faintly smoky base underneath. The accords also carry a synthetic edge, and the scent leans firmly towards the sweet, gourmand side.

Its longevity and sillage are rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, with evening, leisure and night out as the leading occasions. Voters call it modern and feminine more often than masculine, though it remains unisex. Imaginary Authors A Whiff of Waffle Cone (2020) and Ganache Parfums Vanilla Custard have a close profile.
