What does My Only Wish smell like?

It opens bright with lemon, bergamot, mandarin orange and raspberry. The heart turns floral with jasmine, rose, gardenia and orange blossom, warmed by amber and ginger flower. The base settles into vanilla, caramel, milk, cardamom and sandalwood, leaving a sweet, creamy, lightly spiced trail.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring close behind and summer trailing. It is worn from daily routines to evenings out. Half of voters find it feminine. Cacharel Yes I Am and Diesel Loverdose Tattoo have a close profile.
