What does Dreams (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

It opens with roasted almond, candied apple, bergamot and star anise: the apple's sweetness is lightened by bergamot, while the anise adds a spicy edge. The heart brings lily of the valley, freesia and honeysuckle for a floral freshness. In the base, tonka bean, bourbon vanilla, patchouli and musk turn it powdery, soft and oriental-sweet.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. The number of ratings is small, so these impressions are tentative. Dreams has been discontinued. Diesel Zero Plus Feminine and Sue Wong Sue Wong have a close profile.
