What does Vanilla Intense smell like?

The top notes of juniper berry, apple and pineapple give it a bright, fruity start. In the heart, bergamot, rose and jasmine are joined by the sweetness of vanilla. The base of patchouli, birch, musk and ambergris settles it onto a woody, smoky ground.

Longevity and sillage are both rated as good. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn close behind. It leans towards daily and leisure wear and also suits the office. Voters read it as mostly masculine, though modern and classic impressions get votes too.
