What does Vanille Marine smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind, while few see it as a summer scent. Leisure, nights out and evenings lead the occasions. Votes lean most toward a feminine character, though it reads as unisex too.

Clary sage, vanilla and caramel open it with a creamy, gourmand sweetness. In the heart, jasmine, juniper and lily of the valley add a floral, lightly spicy turn. In the base, musk and amber settle the sweetness into a soft, oriental warmth. The fresh and aquatic accords keep it from turning heavy.
