About This Perfume
Think Warm cinnamon apple pie, with cedar wood sweetness: that is Ulric de Varens UDV Night. It opens with apple, bergamot and mandarin orange, moves into orange blossom, cedarwood and cinnamon and settles on amberwood, teakwood and tonka bean. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de toilette works across all four seasons and is easy to wear day or night. It suits casual days, the office and date nights. Released in 2012.
In the community's experience it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something gourmand and sweet for casual days.
- Sample first if: sweet is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike fruity fragrances.
Around $18.
