What do reviewers say about Vanilla Cake and Afternoon Delight?
The sweetest Montale. Warm, lactonic, close to the skin, and proud of it. Some people want a fragrance that fills the room. This one wants to fill your sweater sleeve instead.Vanilla Cake
The vanilla and madeleine duo here really does feel like that specific kind of afternoon, sweet and quiet. Whipped cream keeps it from getting heavy, and it stays close to the skin throughout.Afternoon Delight
