What does Hypnotic Vanilla (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Most voters pick fall and winter, with evening and night out leading the occasions and daily wear also getting a share. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Over half of voters find it feminine, and a fair number call it modern.

Gourmand and floral accords run together. Dulce de leche and bourbon vanilla keep it sweet and creamy, while jasmine, heliotrope and apricot blossom add a powdery floral touch. Hawthorn and moss stay in the background and soften the spicy, oriental edge.
