Sweet Citrus Toffee
A subtle hint of lemon over a sweet and cashmeran cookie dough vanilla and toffee. It's a really enticing gourmand and doesn't verge anywhere near being sickly sweet, juvenile, or over the top. For someone who doesn't find gourmands as easily cloying as I do, I even think this could work year round, because the citrus and florals really balance it out and keep it from getting too food-like.

One of the very few perfumes I've actually been complimented on; my coworker said I smelled "really good, like chocolate or something." :) So I'd say the sillage is pretty good! Longevity isn't bad, though the scent bubble definitely becomes personal after a little bit, I could still smell it on my sleeve a few days later. Absolutely worth the ten bucks! I'd be lying if I said I haven't considered buying another bottle for a backup, since it's such a cheapie.

Initially Lira and orchid vanilla, then powdery lipstick vanilla, a bit waxy, slightly fruity-floral. Great affordable alternative to O.V.

Actually a blend of Lira and Orchideé Vanille. Light and fluffy. A cozy scent.

At first, I smell pistachio gelato, then it turns into a true lira/devotion. I like it, hopefully it lasts a bit.

Fluffy, fleeting, airy, sweet - it’s not like Lira, as it has no depth. Creamy vanilla is replaced by a clean, fruity, vanilla cloud.

Beautiful, soft gourmand. A blend of Lira and Orchidée Vanille. Fresh citrus notes and creamy vanilla take center stage.

Powdery vanilla, a hint of lemon, a light version of Devotion, unfortunately very fleeting. Still worth a try.

For me, it's absolutely orchid vanilla in the drydown, lasts forever on clothes. I use it as an elevated room spray on cold days, simply wonderful.

a perfect creamy scent for summer that doesn’t just scream “citrusy”!
Soft, cozy, and clean!
