Real talk
Most vanillas go soft. This one doesn't. The cardamom and pink pepper keep things interesting, and the citrus in the opening is actually citrus, not a vague brightness but a real presence that stays.Drowning in Vanilla
Spectre Ghost makes vanilla feel modern. There is spiciness in the opening and warmth in the drydown, but it never becomes heavy. The performance is restrained, which is the point rather than a flaw.Spectre Ghost
