What does Vanille Patchouli (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out. Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. More voters call it feminine, but a fair number find it masculine, so it sits somewhere in between.

Sandalwood and patchouli open on a woody, earthy note. In the heart, benzoin and vanilla sweeten it and add a creamy, powdery softness. In the base, vanilla joins white musk for a warm, gourmand trail. Spicy and oriental touches stay in the background.
