What does Accident à La Vanille smell like?

Vanilla runs through the top, heart and base alike. In the heart, sandalwood softens the creaminess with a woody floor, and in the base styrax adds a spicy, slightly synthetic edge. The sweet, gourmand side stays in charge throughout.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, with leisure and evening wear leading the occasions. The largest share of voters reads it as feminine, though it works as a unisex scent. Avon Naturals - Vanilla & Sandalwood and Yves Rocher My Shiny Vanilla have a close profile.
