What does Dulce Diablo smell like?

It opens with cognac, rum absolute and apricot giving a sweet warmth, with chocolate deepening it. In the heart, honey, cocoa and dried apricot dominate, while sugar cane pushes the sweetness further. The base of Bourbon vanilla, sandalwood and tonka bean absolute settles it into something creamy and soft.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with night-out and evening wear leading and leisure close behind. Most voters read it as feminine, though a fair number call it masculine.
