What does Douceur Brulee smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong, though the votes are few in number. Its rich, sweet build suits cooler weather and closer company better than a crowded room. It is described as unisex.

Caramel and butter form the core, with coconut milk adding a creamy softness. Lemon cuts the sweetness slightly, while beeswax absolute, musk and ambroxan lay a warm base and oakmoss leaves a dry trace behind. The Dua Brand Caramel Crème Brûlée and Les Parfums de Grasse Vanille Caramel have a close profile.
