What does Hot Cakes smell like?

The top is butter and buttermilk, so it opens milky and rich. In the heart, maple syrup and pancake take over and the sweetness comes into focus. The base holds musk, sugar and berry compote; the musk smooths everything into a rounder, softer sweetness.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it is noticed up close without filling a room. It is not tied to one gender. The Dua Brand Maple Pancakes and Butter Toki Let 'em Eat Cake! have a close profile.
