What does A Sweet Pastry in Paris smell like?

Lemon gives a sparkling citrus start, while cane sugar and vanilla soften it into a sweet, powdery, creamy base. A fruity touch runs alongside, and the overall feel is sugary and slightly synthetic.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick autumn, winter and spring, with summer less favoured. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, and most voters call its character feminine and modern. Olfattiva Nuvola di Crema and The Dua Brand Vanilla Lemon Gelato have a close profile.
