Alaïa Eau de Parfum Blanche

Almond, heliotrope and vanilla absolute form a straight line from top to base, each handing on to the next with barely a change of tone. Heliotrope is the natural bridge, since it already smells of almond and vanilla, and the progression reads as one powdery, balsamic sweetness slowly deepening.
