Cloves, cloves, and more cloves from the very beginning to the drydown. Pungent, at times irritating. Vanilla gets lost along the way, shy and silent, hidden behind the overpowering cloves. Tobacco and tonka create a balanced, rounded base for the drydown, from now on the fragrance becomes more bearable and the vanilla gradually comes to the fore. For clove-loving perfume enthusiasts, this is a beautiful composition that is predestined for the colder season. The scent lasts a very long time on the skin and reveals a very pleasant side in the drydown. You have to give it some time.
What does this composition remind me of?! Molinard's Vanille Patchouli comes to mind first, rather than Tobacco Vanille - to which the scent is supposed to be related.
Persuasive? Yes, convincing, very much in line with the translation. But not the vanilla......
