This is a beautiful soft and milky sandalwood. It’s kind of a common scent profile, with florals (orange blossom mostly), bergamot in the opening and a lot of sweetness. The sandalwood being more prominent sets it apart from most others I’ve tried in this general direction.

It’s very lactonic, but it doesn’t border on condensed milk like some others do; it’s really well done. You do get a nutty almond in here and overall, it’s made for the sweet tooth (and I feel like mostly women will gravitate towards Honore Delights). The woodiness totally makes this fragrance for me.
