Artwork by Carlations. Follow Dahlia and her new companions down the rabbit hole as she uncovers the mysteries of this strange and savage world.

It smells like a woman in a lovely lace dress with a very fancy vanilla chiffon cake in front of her while drinking some black tea in her garden.
Except it’s not a gourmand! The smoked cardamon and the vanilla mix perfectly but they don’t make you want to eat your wrist!
I can also smell the amber in the background but it along with the florals is feint. I know it’s there. But the cardamom and vanilla are the stars of the show.
The vanilla in this reminds me of Dorian’s vanilla. Raw vanilla. Not cupcakes.
Has medium sillage on me.

Stunner. Sister to Crinoline & Surgared Laces. Not a candy or gourmand sweet, not too floral.
