What does Grand Soir (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

The scent reads as a whole, warm and creamy. Vanilla, Siam benzoin and two kinds of tonka bean give it a gourmand softness, while Spanish labdanum adds resinous depth. Ceylonese cinnamon leaf brings a spicy warmth, and Provençal lavender lightly balances the sweetness. Oriental and woody tones run quietly underneath.

Both longevity and sillage are rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening or a night out; summer is rarely chosen. It is read as more masculine, though a fair number of voters find it feminine.
