Middle notes: Sour Cherry, Jasmine, Freesia.
Base notes: Tonka Bean, Vanilla, Cacao Pod, Caramel, Praline, Benzoin, Milk, Sandalwood, Leather, Cedar.
First of all, I’m not convinced that it’s a fragrance. It’s more appropriate as a dessert. At first, I was like; I shouldn’t wear this; I should eat this. It’s really delicious.
Anyway, Feve Delicieuse is an amber vanilla fragrance. It was released in 2015. The nose behind this fragrance is Francois Demachy. The bottle looks premium and classy and the cap is so awesome.

It was obvious to make this scent no.1, but the price range is a bit high, and it’s not an everyday use scent like Sauvage.
