What does Kakigori - Dulce de Leche smell like?

Cardamom, hazelnut and black pepper give the opening a spicy, nutty edge. In the heart, sesame absolute and dulce de leche take over, and the sweetness turns soft and creamy. Gaiac wood, vanilla and sandalwood settle it onto a woody base.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by winter and spring, and it leans towards leisure and daily wear. Most voters read it as feminine and modern. Jousset Parfums Accident à La Vanille and Rituals Santal Signature have a close profile.
