There are 2 sweet accords. One is flowery/fruity. Can't make out what that is. The second is a synthetic sweetness like the scented erasers that my classmates used in the late 80s and early 90s. I didn't like it when I sprayed it the first time. But after having worn this a couple of times, it has grown on me. I actually like the sweetness that I described as synthetic. Some may call it marshmallow but I can't make that judgement because I do not know what marshmallow is or what it tastes or smells like. The warmth of this perfume is comforting probably because of the vanilla in it. That said, this is not an exclusive winter perfume. You may wear this is cool, temperate weather and summers also. Not if it gets very hot or humid though. This perfume has excellent longevity. I usually test a perfume by spraying it on a doorpost. That was 2 weeks back. I still get a faint whiff of vanilla when I go near the door. This doesn't hurt the nose and stays constantly with you. My rating for this scent has gone from naah to yeah!

Excellent perfume for winter....
