I love that parfum bottle too, love its color and the tassle...it's a shame that I can't pull off wearing the juice itself.

Even if one does not care for heavy doses of vanilla in fragrances (your author is one such individual), Patricia de Nicolaï’s creation will surely be a pleasant surprise. On these days, when the autumnal chills are felt in the morning breeze, its sensual and warm embrace is wonderfully comforting. The fragrance starts out with a soft smoky note of cinnamon ornamented by sweet tangerine and tart dry lime, which give a sensation similar to eating cinnamon flavoured candies that simultaneously burn and chill your mouth.
