What does Vanille de La Réunion / Vanille Bourbon smell like?

Apple and bergamot give the opening a light, fruity freshness. In the heart, almond blossom and heliotrope soften the scent and add a powdery sweetness. Patchouli and vanilla dominate the base, while the oriental and spicy accords keep the vanilla warm rather than flat.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick winter and fall, and summer is the least chosen season. Leisure, daily wear and evenings lead the occasions. Most voters read it as feminine, though some see it as unisex. Dior Fève Délicieuse and Harry Lehmann Vanille have a close profile.
