I'm not a vampire, but I feel like one.
It starts with a good amount of rum and sweetness, reminding me of little rum balls. My mouth really watered; I wanted to eat what I was smelling.
The vanilla, represented by several varieties, is present at all times. It’s not a sweet vanilla like we might know from yogurt or pudding. Instead, it’s a more naturally scented vanilla for me. The vanilla varieties are there, but not "in your face"; the sweetness might rather be associated with the rum.
And then patchouli hits hard. For my perception, quite a lot. I generally have no problem with patchouli in perfumes, as long as it’s not prominent but blends into the fragrance composition. In "Van Py Rhum | Lorenzo Pazzaglia," there are two varieties, and both are clearly noticeable. I’ve already mentioned in a statement that it’s both chocolatey and earthy (fresh, damp earth). Unfortunately, for me, the patchouli note is too much, so I can’t wear the perfume.
I don’t perceive white flowers and oud.
The longevity is top-notch. It’s an Extrait de Parfum, and when sprayed, it’s not only very oily but also sticky. That lasts. A long time.
I find the perfume itself successful, and I’m already fascinated by it; the theme is definitely hit. But as I said, the patchouli is personally too intense for me, and I just can’t handle the intensity. Those who like it will have fun with it :)

No, it's not just for "teenagers"...
...just because it's from a certain company and available at the drugstore.
On the paper strip, I was fascinated by the honey, which is very warm and delicious. Later, the rose joined in. I usually don't like too much rose in a perfume, but here it harmonizes beautifully.
On my skin, it's honey and especially lavender that emerge together; the rose comes in a little later, and at the very end, there's musk and patchouli, which has a chocolatey effect. At least on my skin and in my perception.
I think everything fits together here. And anyone who likes it can wear it.

Buried Under Powdered Sugar
When I sprayed it on my skin, I was thrilled in the first few seconds by the vanilla and caramel, both of which did not come across as sweet at all. I really liked that. However, in the drydown, all I can smell on my skin is the sweetness of powdered sugar and musk. It's as if the main players - vanilla, caramel, and sandalwood - have been dusted with powdered sugar, and my nose has to find its way through this layer. And where is the almond, by the way? I'm not really upset about it, but I have no idea what my skin is doing.
It's a shame for me because I particularly enjoy the fact that vanilla and caramel are not sweet.
I hope that you have a different scent experience on your skin :) my skin just didn't want to let it go.
Overall, it's rather a subtle fragrance.
