What does Radiant Echo smell like?

Cognac comes first, then patchouli adds a woody, smoky heart. Amber and vanilla dominate the base, leaving the scent creamy, resinous and warmly sweet.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters split almost evenly between daily, leisure, night out and evening wear, with the office a far less common choice. Its amber-and-vanilla profile sits close to Serge Lutens Ambre Sultan and Private Mood Vanille et Cognac.
