    Real talk

    Resinous vanilla that goes the distance. Six to eight hours on most skin, and it doesn't shrink from the room. No florals crowding the heart, vanilla and saffron carry it alone.Eleonore
    Maurice Roucel built L'Instant de Guerlain around magnolia as the spine, and it works. The floral heart is substantial but never heavy, and the honey-vanilla base gives it enough warmth to wear.L'Instant de Guerlain
