What does Accident à La Vanille - Almond Cake smell like?

Vanilla runs through every layer, from the opening to the base. Sandalwood and pastry sit in the heart, with styrax and almond underneath; the sandalwood and styrax temper the sweetness and add a slightly spicy, powdery depth. The overall impression is warm, creamy and distinctly synthetic.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It has been discontinued. Its profile is close to Jousset Parfums Accident à La Vanille and Profumum Roma Dolce Acqua.
