What does Vanilla Aura smell like?
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick winter and fall, with spring well behind. It leans towards evenings and nights out, though leisure and workdays are possible too.
It opens with bergamot, lemon and lily of the valley, a light freshness that gives way to a heart of vanilla, caramel and chocolate. The base of tonka bean, sandalwood and amber settles into a powdery, spicy, faintly smoky warmth. Farmacia SS. Annunziata Talc Gourmand (Parfum) and Joop! Le Bain (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
