What does Vanille Orient smell like?

It lasts well and projects moderately. Most voters pick winter and fall, and evening and night out are the occasions chosen most often. Those who call it feminine are in the majority. It has been discontinued.

Vanilla sits at the top and again in the heart, where vanilla blossom and sandalwood soften it. In the base, musk and ambergris keep it on a warm, powdery footing. The sweet, gourmand side is balanced by spicy, woody and smoky shades.
