In plain words

The main accords of Hypnotic Poison Eau Sensuelle are vanilla and sweet. It opens with Orange Blossom and Ylang-Ylang, reveals Orchid and Tuberose at its heart, and dries down to Vanilla and Sandalwood. It lasts long and projects strongly; people reach for it in winter, mostly in the evening.
