Warm sweetness meets coconut biscuit
This fragrance has awakened many memories of vacations in me.
The warm, sweet note of vanilla paired with a coconut note reminiscent of a coconut cake make this a wonderful summer/spring scent.
For me, vanilla has always been a fragrance that was good for the colder seasons, in a blend with woody or more dominant notes.
However, this fragrance has shown me the opposite.
The DD was a bit disappointing for me though as the vanilla was just there at some point, making this fragrance more reminiscent of the scent of a vanilla skin cream.
It reminded me of my school days not so long ago when the girls sprayed themselves with their deodorant after sports.... pure vanilla with a tiny dash of fruit.
Nevertheless, this fragrance remains a great alternative for the summer, when fresh, aquatic scents dominated for me

A double-edged sword
I bought the fragrance as a sample because of the extreme price. In my opinion, this fragrance is very good for the cold season, but for many people it is a reason to leave the room. Unfortunately, I don't know exactly what it is, but even I get headaches and a slight nausea after wearing this fragrance for a long time... The composition of the fragrance is really well designed.
The opening has a clear lavender note, with a soft vanilla note that softens the whole thing. The whole thing is followed by a round leather note waiting in the background. I think the bitter almond gets lost in the mixture with the vanilla/tonka bean. The leather note dominates after a short time. It reminds me strongly of the smell of leather care cream that has been freshly applied to the leather.
A woody note comes out in the DD, which unfortunately smells a little unpleasant to me, which is why I have already washed this fragrance off several times.
For many, this is a fragrance that is unbeatable, for me it is unfortunately too unpleasant to wear it often and for long.

Fusion of Ombre Nomade and Erba Pura
I was somehow taken with this fragrance. The start is very reminiscent of Erba Pura. This fruity note, which is strongly dominated by the mango mentioned in the name, of course. After an hour, I noticed a very familiar scent that I couldn't identify at first. After I sprayed half my collection to find this scent again. This oud note is very reminiscent of Ombre Nomade, which I really liked.
I really like the drydown and the opening of this fragrance. If you like these fragrances, this one is a 2 for 1, but not for midsummer.

Where does the gin and tonic come from?
The opening gave me flashbacks to summer. With a gin and tonic on the terrace, the sun was slowly setting. I was pleasantly surprised by the drydown - I don't really like musky fragrances, but I really liked this one. The mixture of light vanilla and a pleasant musky note make this fragrance the perfect summer scent for a nice get-together in the garden.
