  I must admit I haven’t enjoyed any Penhaligon’s fragrances, which is a shame as I would have loved to own one of those lovely bottles. I thought TWATA would appeal to me as it seemed spiced and warm in the bottle, but on the skin it wasn’t spiced, just warm, and I didn’t like it at all. On the opening, I detected tonka bean with incense and lightly wrapped in vanilla, but for me, the fragrance turned into an intense tonka bean and incense scent that I couldn’t bear to wear. Rating: 6/10.

  I must say I haven’t liked any Penhaligon’s fragrances, and it’s a pity because I would have loved to own one of those lovely bottles. I thought TWATA would suit me because seeing it in the bottle it looked spiced and warm, but on my skin it wasn’t spiced, just warm, and I didn’t like it at all. In the opening I noticed tonka bean with incense and light vanilla, but for me it turned into an intense tonka bean and incense perfume that I couldn’t stand. Rating: 6/10.

  I consider it not for everyone; you need to like incense to handle the opening. After a few hours, everything changes; I doubt anyone would say it doesn’t smell exquisite, but you have to wait a few hours for it to happen. The first two hours can be tricky if you don’t like incense. I love it, so today is one of the ones I use most, and it has earned me the most compliments.

  Normally incense notes come with pepper and are sharp, but here it goes with vanilla, softer, slightly sweet and wearable, not bothersome on hot days. I would have loved for it to last and project more. I got lucky with it and it made me addicted to the incense note.

  Certainly special for incense and vanilla lovers. The opening is very strong with intense incense notes. The first few seconds upon application remind me of stepping into a wooden booth with antique furniture. After a few minutes, the dry-down is super sweet, revealing a potent and long-lasting vanilla. In short, it’s not for everyone, but it is for the bold who enjoy vanilla.

  Certainly a special perfume for lovers of incense and vanilla. The opening is very strong with intense incense notes; the first few seconds after spraying remind me of stepping into a wooden booth filled with antique furniture. After a few minutes, the dry-down becomes super sweet, revealing a potent and lasting vanilla. In summary, it’s not for everyone, but perfect for the bold who enjoy vanilla.

  I bought it for the incense note and I don’t have anything else in my collection with that touch, and I have no regrets. It’s incredible, lasting 12 hours or more, and sometimes it gets impregnated on other clothes. The vanilla is sweet but not cloying; perhaps it’s the incense or the tonka bean, which also has a woody note, making it light and elegant. I wear it every day without feeling it’s heavy. I have absolutely no regrets. It reminds me of a church or an antique shop; I think if the Wandering Castle existed, it would smell like this.

  I cannot fathom why Changing Constance lacks more fame when this fragrance surpasses it by a mile. Recommended by a duty-free seller in Brazil, as I had no idea it existed, it was love at first sniff. I adore this scent: warm and sweet without being cloying, vanilla-infused and spiced with a perfect incense that is both enveloping and delicate. Worth every dollar ♥

  I don’t understand why it doesn’t have the reputation it deserves, as it far surpasses Changing Constance. Thanks to the duty-free seller in Brazil who recommended it, I didn’t know it existed, and it was love at first sniff. I adore it: warm, sweet but not cloying, spiced vanilla with a perfect incense, enveloping and delicate. Worth every dollar.

  Truth be told, it lasts well and is lovely, though it doesn’t have much of a trail. I really like it.

  Smells fantastic: a tonka bean and vanilla blend with incense that is neither heavy nor cloying. Soft and inoffensive. It has nothing to do with BabyCat; the YSL version has suede and creamy vanilla, whereas this is more subtle, with a less smoky incense. Lasts 6–7 hours, with a shy projection, ideal for intimate wear. Scent: 8.5/10. Longevity: 7/10h. Projection: 6/10. Versatility: 7/10.

  A very nice aroma, a blend of tonka bean, vanilla, and incense. It doesn’t feel heavy or cloying; I find it softer and safer, unlikely to overwhelm anyone. I don’t see any resemblance to BabyCat: YSL’s has a distinct suede note and creamy vanilla, whereas this has a more subtle vanilla and a more wearable, less smoky incense. The longevity isn’t exceptional but is sufficient, lasting around 6-7 hours, though the projection is a little shy; it’s more of an intimate scent for oneself or close companions. Scent: 8.5/10. Longevity: 7/10h. Projection: 6/10. Versatility: 7/10.
