Exactly the one I was looking for, Biancolatte....

Actually, it is very unfair to the fragrances for which I still wanted to write comments and that have been waiting on my list for days to be commented on.
Unfortunately, my sense of fairness stops functioning properly with Biancolatte, and for once, I’m going to be really mean and unfair.... Unfair to all the other fragrances that now have to wait even longer on my report list while I must let Biancolatte cut in line for my report :P

I thank the lovely Miezetatze85 for the decant of Biancolatte and for the fact that thanks to her, I have finally found what I have been searching for for a long time and am now totally happy about it :)

Biancolatte is a fragrance that reminds me a lot of my childhood and of the warm honey milk with vanilla that my mother lovingly prepared for me in the evenings. Every evening, she would prepare the honey milk before bedtime, and I could fall asleep immediately afterward. The scent of the delicious honey milk made by my mother is incomparable and unique, warming and enveloping! Even today, it is often my evening drink that I enjoy before going to sleep, and it helps me fall asleep much better :))

There are things in life that you search for, and in the end, you don’t find them.... sometimes, however, you search for things that you eventually find one day, in a very unexpected moment when you have long since given up hope....

That’s exactly how it was for me in my search for a fragrance that smells deliciously of honey, milk, and creamy-sweet vanilla, just like mom’s delicious honey milk with vanilla flavor.
This fragrance gives me a feeling of absolute warmth and security, and although you don’t see honey in the fragrance description, I perceive a distinct light honey scent, which I attribute more to the butter note mixed with a caramel note that smells very natural and well-crafted to me.
Other fragrance notes that I perceive are the warm, subtly sweet vanilla, accompanied by a hint of caramel without smelling overly sweet like cotton candy or synthetic sweet stuff. Salt, on the other hand, I do not perceive at all from the very beginning.
As my predecessor has already reported about Biancolatte, the fragrance does not have a changing progression over time for me either. The described fragrance notes that were there from the beginning remain exactly as they started even after hours....

The longevity is long, and the sillage is so strong that I applied it in the morning and can still perceive it very well in the evening.

Overall, Biancolatte is for me the "happiness" personally, summarized and captured in a special gourmand fragrance that, in my opinion, is finely crafted and evokes beautiful childhood memories for me :)

@ Sonnenfee: That's absolutely true, it really helps to balance or limit the sweetness :D Unfortunately, I didn't pick up on the salty note at all.

A pinch of salt is the secret to many treats ;))

In Vanille West Indies, you can easily notice the increasingly faint orchid note; here, there's no trace of orchid, and the vanilla in Biancolatte is a bit more subtle, harmonizing more with the caramel note :)

@ Lilau: Thanks :) Biancolatte doesn't smell like Vanilla West Indies; I think the only similarity between the two is really the vanilla note. Vanilla West Indies lacks the buttery note and is a bit more "caramel-dominant" than Biancolatte.

I only drink honey milk when my throat is scratchy. ;-) It usually helps..... Your comment sounds great, I’ll keep that in mind. Does it smell similar to Vanilla West Indies because of the vanilla-caramel note?
