Speculoos or Caramel Cookie?

So what is it? This perfume has elements of both, yet it is not a typical gourmand that makes you smell like you've spent the last hours baking cookies in the kitchen (although I do enjoy such scents!). Other notes still play a significant role, flowers that I cannot identify as individual notes, and base notes that transform “Star of the Season Elixir” into a spicy-warm, sweet, yet simultaneously elegant perfume.
I completely agree with Angua that the pyramid of “Star of the Seasons” fits better, and the one for the Elixir apparently only shows the additional notes. My “fear opponent” cumin fortunately only makes a brief appearance and in a rather friendly manner. It has ruined many beautiful scents for me in the past, as it usually comes off as sweaty on my skin - thankfully not here.
Even with the small sample, I immediately fell in love with this scent. And by chance, there was also a current sharing going on. However, the decant will only be used during the pre-Christmas season - ultimately, it is indeed a perfume that I find extremely suitable for this time of year due to the spices and sweetness.

Vanilla pudding with almond decoration, dusted with iris powder in the drydown. At first, I still smell a fruity note. Where does that come from?

Vanilla flatters the iris :)
*Peach-cookie treat*
Patch adds delicate nuances.
A fine little treat ... a bit boring in the base.

On the clove (or rice-) follows a sweetened almond drink enriched with cinnamon and vanilla. Also resinous. A gourmand for the lady.

Subtle gourmand scent. Almond-vanilla cream with a creamy-powdery touch. Not bad, but it doesn't blow me away either.

Patchouli and spices dominate for me at first.
Later, vanilla, almond, and iris join in.
Delicious gourmand scent.

Gentle, bright oriental, moderately sweet & fine spicy. Iris, vanilla & almond envelop you like a cashmere sweater. Soul comforter.

Strong, spicy (without cumin!), surprisingly fresh. Then softly roasted caramel on a floral (rose?) powdery iris-vanilla base.

Oriental-spicy start
with a hint of sweetness,
creamy development with
a touch of powder, patchouli, & almonds.
I find it very beautiful & exciting :)
