This is surely one of the more unusual perfumes from City Rhytm I've tried. This perfume is rather simple and straightforward for what it is, but there's a certain value in it, too.

First things first - the projection and longevity on this are quite good. It's less of a "beast" than some other fragrances of this brand, but still projects heavily and stays on for a whole day.

It's not present in the notes, but through the opening and further, I smelled a strong wiff of mint, which makes this fragrance quite unique among many different vanilla-oriented scents out there. It starts indeed a tad citrusy and minty but quickly turns into vanilla dominance with a hint of freshness and stays so throughout the wear.

I'm definitely not a vanilla fiend, but among different spins on "gourmand vanilla," I find this one worthy of attention.

      It's so unique! I've never would have thought vanilla could be framed that way.

      What I mostly get is the tobacco, but it's not a typical tobacco note. I didn't know if it's because of the driftwood and vanilla but it's more like a beautiful pipe tobacco scent.
