So the packaging made me believe this would be sweeter because of the vanilla note on the website, but this is actually super woody. Although it was unexpected it was definitely a pleasant surprise. For someone like me who always wore gourmand fragrances, this is definitely very different and very welcome in my perfume collection. I think it's kind of a unisex fragrance that can lean to masc/fem depending on how you present yourself. Lastly it smells so fancy! I'm reminded of trips to Dillard's with my mom and sampling the perfumes there.
