What does Phrænesya Pastiera / Frennesìa smell like?

It opens with coconut milk, lemon, raspberry and orange, fresh and fruity. In the heart, caramel, orange blossom, cinnamon, tonka bean and Italian pastry sweeten the scent and give it a spicy, creamy body. In the base, benzoin, vanilla and amber carry the sweetness on, while patchouli and precious woods steady it from the background.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. Its warm, gourmand build should sit most comfortably in cooler weather. New Notes Latte di Cherry and Afnan Perfumes 9pm have a close profile.
