What does Vanille Overload smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so these figures are only a rough guide. It has a dense, warm character that sits comfortably on men and women alike.

Vanilla and benzoin form the backbone, with the sweetness of rum and a smoky touch of frankincense alongside. Pink pepper and bergamot add spice and light, while jasmine, Bulgarian rose and Comorian ylang-ylang bring a soft floral side. Cedar gives a woody base, and the overall impression is creamy and powdery.
