What does Vanille West Indies smell like?

It opens with orchid and vanilla together, and in the heart vanilla blossom pushes it toward a floral, powdery side. The base settles into caramel and vanilla, leaving a sweet, creamy, gourmand scent. The powdery touch keeps the sweetness soft.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with summer far behind. It leans toward leisure time and evenings, and most see it as feminine. Mazzolari Vaniglia and N.C.P. 501 - Iris & Vanilla have a close profile.
