CreamyWhat does Madeleine smell like?
It lasts well and projects well. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans towards leisure, evening and night-out wear. Most read it as feminine, with a modern side too.
It opens with cumin, chestnut and cream, spicy and creamy. The heart pairs tuberose absolute with Egyptian geranium and cypress for a floral, woody frame. The base of tonka bean absolute, musk and vanilla dries down gourmand and sweet. Maison Francis Kurkdjian Gentle Fluidity (Gold) and Zielinski & Rozen Black Vanilla have a close profile.
