    This is not a shy scent. That opening Orange hits fast, the Madeleine note gives it an edible edge most fragrance lovers will immediately recognize, and the Oud-Sandalwood drydown keeps things.Madeleine Impériale
    It's sweet. Make no mistake. But it's sweet with a point to prove, the citrus keeps it from becoming a sugar bomb, and the vanilla at the end is warm, not cloying.Lemon Cake
