What does 18.1 Praliné de Santal smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, while spring and summer trail behind. Leisure and evening wear lead the occasions, and it doesn't settle on one gender: votes split between feminine and masculine.

Hazelnut opens it on a sweet note, with heliotrope adding a soft, powdery heart. In the base, sandalwood and cedarwood build a woody foundation and fleur de sel tempers the sweetness. Spicy and oriental touches round out the accords. Armaf Craze and Maison des Rêves Mousse au Café have a close profile.
