What does Belle Suzette smell like?

It opens on bright citrus, with butter and rum softening it into a sweetness that feels close to the dessert table. The heart is floral, built from frangipani, ylang-ylang, iris and Indian jasmine sambac, while immortelle and clary sage add a faintly spicy, smoky edge. The base turns creamy and sweet with vanilla, tonka bean, caramel and salted butter, and cedar, gaiac wood, benzoin and white musk give the dry-down a woody, resinous depth. Its profile is close to Jorum Studio Spiritcask and Memoize Caritas.
