Side by side
Comparing the originals — price, breadth, listed-note depth.
Lavender opens soft and slightly powdery before the vanilla orchid and amber pull it into warmer, creamier territory. The heart settles into a skin-close gourmand haze — sweet but not cloying, with sandalwood adding just enough dry depth to keep it from reading as pure dessert. Projection is moderate; sillage stays intimate. The dry-down is the best part: a warm, musky vanilla that clings for hours without announcing itself. Clean but sensual, simple in the best way — fall and winter evenings, for anyone who wants to smell effortlessly good without trying too hard.
Opens with a burst of warm, slightly bitter tobacco leaf cut through with baking spices, then settles quickly into its real identity: a dense, almost edible heart of vanilla and tonka bean wrapped around sweet tobacco blossom and a whisper of cocoa. The dry-down is smooth and relentless, staying close to the skin but leaving a heavy, honeyed sillage that reads in any room. Projection is generous without being aggressive — this wears like an expensive dessert you're not sharing — Deep fall and winter evenings, anyone who wants to smell unmistakably present.
