What does Drowning in Caramel Cherry Delight smell like?

Caramel, black cherry and vanilla form the sweet core, while roasted tonka bean and bitter almond make it denser and rounder. Cinnamon, cardamom and pink pepper add a spicy warmth, and benzoin, patchouli and musk lay a powdery, oriental base underneath.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good, though the sample of votes is small. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with evening, leisure and night out leading the occasions. The feminine vote is slightly ahead, but masculine and modern votes are close behind. Drowning in Cherry Casino and L'Erbolario Dolcelisir have a close profile.
