The vanilla and citrus blend sits so close to the skin for hours, and the spicy kick keeps it from feeling like a typical sweet perfume. I grabbed the 100 ml spray and one spritz is honestly all I need, it's got real staying power without being overpowering.

The vanilla really anchors this extrait, turning the spicy notes into something smooth and cozy instead of sharp. I got the 50 ml spray and one spritz lasts me through a full workday, which is impressive for a fragrance this layered.

The vanilla comes through so warm on the dry-down, that spicy-citrus opening settles into something really sophisticated. Wore the 50 ml spray out all evening and it still had presence hours later.
