What does Vanille Vanille smell like?

The top pairs coconut with star anise, while ylang-ylang, iris and praliné in the heart add a floral, powdery softness. The base of benzoin and Bourbon vanilla settles into a creamy, sweet vanilla with a light spicy edge.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind, and it leans towards leisure and evening wear. Voters read it as mostly feminine, though it is classed as unisex. Soleil Vanille and Vanille Sambag have a close profile.
