What does Escapade Gourmande smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick winter and fall, and evening, leisure and night out lead the occasions. It reads mostly feminine, though a fair share of voters call it modern.
It opens on a pronounced black sugar sweetness. Tonka bean and vanilla then move the heart towards something soft and creamy, while benzoin and musk wrap the base and a smoky tone stays in the background. Perfumes with a close profile include The Dua Brand A Gourmand Escape and Les Parfums de Grasse Vanille Caramel.
