In plain words

The main accords of Vanilla Skin are vanilla and sweet. It opens with Sugar and Pink Pepper, reveals Cashmere Wood and Jasmine at its heart, and dries down to Vanilla and Sandalwood. It lasts a moderate time and projects moderately; people reach for it in autumn and winter, day or night.
