What does Ambre Vanille (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

The notes carry no top, heart and base split, so the scent reads as a single whole. Vanilla and brown sugar bring the sweetness, while almond pushes it towards a creamy feel. Tangerine adds a light fruity touch and tiger orchid a soft floral note. Amber and sandalwood form a warm, lightly spiced oriental base underneath.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall, followed by winter and spring, with summer well behind. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, and it also suits evenings out. Most voters find it feminine.
