What does Ilhabela smell like?

The top opens with cinnamon, almond and mandora, so the spicy and gourmand side is clear from the start. In the heart, heliotrope and vanilla push it towards powdery and creamy, while cane sugar and ambroxan carry the sweetness into the base. Fresh and floral accents lighten it and add a slightly synthetic sheen.

Longevity and sillage are rated good, though few people have voted so far. It suits anyone who likes sweet, powdery fragrances regardless of gender. Initio High Frequency and Tom Ford Metallique have a close profile.
