Sugar Sugar is a simple, dessert-leaning vanilla built around white sugar, confectioner's sugar and a soft aged vanilla accord. It opens sweet and powdery, then settles into a creamy sugary vanilla that stays close to the skin. Best for gourmand lovers who want an easy layering scent or a gentle standalone sweetness.
