“Vanilla and lavender over polite oud — SWY's gentlest Arabian gesture, oud without commitment.”

A three-note 2022 edition of Giorgio Armani's Stronger With You, composed by Cecile Matton: vanilla, oud and lavender presented as a single accord. Oud and vanilla share the lead, with lavender and a light, powdery spice keeping the oud smooth rather than smoky. It sits closest to the 2020 Stronger With You Leather within the line. A winter and fall evening scent.
The take
