Bitter almond comes first, while floral notes and vanilla form a soft, sweet heart. In the base, sandalwood, vanilla absolute and tonka bean deepen that sweetness. Spicy and animal accords stay in the background, with a faintly synthetic sheen running through the blend.
Longevity and sillage are rated strong, though the number of voters is small. Its dense, full character reads as feminine.
