Vanille Antique Byredo

Mostly sweet resinous warmth, soft and slightly powdery. Underneath that, sweet and creamy, like vanilla pod or custard.

It opens on musk and plum, moves through white wood and labdanum, and settles on vanilla and amber.

• musk: soft, warm and skin-like. More the impression of clean skin than a smell of its own
• plum: dark sweet fruit, almost wine-like

It lasts well and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
