What does Vanilla (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though these ratings rest on only a few votes. Most voters place it in winter, followed by fall and spring, with summer chosen less. It leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out, and some wear it to the office too.

Lemon and Turkish and Bulgarian rose open with a fresh, floral brightness. In the heart, white musk and lokum soften and sweeten it, and the base of vanilla absolute, amber and cedarwood settles into a warm, gourmand, spicy and woody finish.
