Woodruff Jelly with Vanilla Sauce
Upon the first sniff, I immediately thought of a delicious and sweet dessert from my childhood, with which you could always do such fun things while eating - woodruff jelly with lots of vanilla sauce!

As Angelliese has already mentioned, there is a brief, but only very short, alcoholic note that greets you at first. After that, the scent that reminds me so much of the pudding immediately unfolds. I can only explain it to myself by the fact that the heart note and base note connect:
The freesia brings a peppery freshness into play that tickles the nose, while the violets provide a floral sweetness that also crystallizes as mildly mossy. I also perceive something woody - and I have read that the flower of violets contains this floral-woody aspect, in contrast to the leaves, which tend to bring the other components.

In the top and base notes, the thick warm vanilla sauce envelops the entire scent and makes it beautifully sweet. The fragrance doesn’t really develop much further; it just becomes more subtle, and the sillage pulls back a little. The longevity could be a bit better - but at this price (from 20 euros/100ml), I find it absolutely sufficient.

If you like sweet vanilla and woodruff, you are exactly right here!! :D

This vanilla woodruff-coumarin blend (?) is quite interesting and keeps the scent from being too sweet.

The diva steps onto the stage, carrying a cardboard box filled with jelly. She spins around 3 times, then she's gone!

Smells like a woodruff jelly or jello with vanilla sauce, but only the old-fashioned kind, like a product from the East. Nostalgically beautiful.

Strong vanilla with a hint of violet, slightly powdery. A vanilla lover can't go wrong with this scent. And it's affordable too.

Super soft vanilla scent - just makes you feel good
For me, more like a lovely vanilla body lotion,
very delicate and super soft - I like it...

Dry, floral, clean, fresh.
Vanilla from start to finish.
A bit of cardboard at the beginning.
The scent becomes warm-vanilla in the base.
Interesting.

I smell like I just stepped out of the bath and I'm wrapped in a white, freshly washed, cozy bathrobe. Very clean-powdery-floral.

Sweet-powdery with a fizzy freshness. Reminds me of cream soda, so soda with a cream flavor. It's not unpleasant, but not for me.

Vanilla - what else?
Reminds me of those diet/protein vanilla shakes.
At some point, I get gum vanilla vibes?!
Van. is not for me.

Cake vanilla with floral notes. Due to the moderate sillage, it's also wearable by women in summer. Good!
