    A hidden gem from the collection: vanilla and sandalwood with a present yet soft pepper note, clean woods which I assume are white oud, and barely perceptible saffron. I understand those who compare it to PI despite the lack of almond, as it seems they sometimes invent notes just to sell. In reality, it smells of more than the six advertised. The musky-vanilla base reminds me minimally of Babycat – velvety and very pleasant, perfect for sampling at Le Vestiaire.
