  1. Dama Incognita

    It’s a super sweet vanilla that starts with intense spices, like you’re walking down the spice and nut aisle at the market. After reading the notes, I realize it’s myrrh and benzoin resins, plus coriander and nuts. It has a weird vibe; reminds me of Tobacco Vanille thanks to the nuts and resins, but without the tobacco. Works well for unisex, though on my skin it feels more masculine. Long-lasting with a great sillage.

  2. Distinct and incredible vanilla! It bursts out like a fresh spice bomb with a strong bitter orange citrus note that dominates for at least two hours. I’m not sure if it’s listed or part of the blend, but the orange is very noticeable. It also has a boozy, nutty base reminiscent of Cointreau, but more refined. At first, it’s potent, almost invasive, and a bit bitter for me. After an hour, it mellows to reveal a green, warm, dense vanilla with a smoky myrrh touch. There’s a caramel note, but it’s not gourmand—it’s perfectly balanced. I love the dry down: 100% unisex, sensual, dark, and vibrant. Perfect for autumn/winter. On my skin, it lasts over 8 hours with good projection and wide sillage. It transports me to a Christmas market in Alsace or Flanders while sipping hot red wine. Exquisite, original aroma with great value. I’m buying it for next winter! Try it!
