by Philosophy
Fresh Cream Soft Suede by Philosophy is a gourmand vanilla fragrance with a creamy, soft suede accord that sets it apart from other sweet scents. It opens with a sharp, rubbery note reminiscent of screeching tires or old rubber gloves, which some find unpleasant but eventually subsides into a warm, sweet, boozy vanilla with caramel and musk undertones. The scent evolves into a smooth, slightly leathery, and cashmere-like drydown with hints of whiskey and amber, creating a cozy and intimate aura. It's best suited for colder seasons, particularly winter and autumn, and pairs well with casual or bedtime wear. The longevity is moderate, meaning reapplication is frequent, which some users embrace for its comfort and ease of layering.
