What does Vanitas smell like?
Its longevity is rated very strong and its sillage strong. Most voters pick winter and fall, while summer trails well behind, and evening and night out lead the occasion votes. Nearly half of voters read it as feminine, though it is classed as unisex.
Vanilla and sandalwood build a creamy, sweet base. Orange blossom adds a soft floral and fruity note, while myrrh brings a spicy, powdery depth. The overall impression is warm and gourmand, with a woody edge.
