Not at all as hoped
To me, it smells acrid and very synthetic. Almost like burning tequila.

How does Imaginary Authors A Whiff of Waffle Cone smell?
Opens with a strong salted caramel note accompanied by Vietnamese cinnamon and creamy vanilla. The heart reveals warm, freshly baked waffle cone accords enhanced by orgeat syrup's almond sweetness. The base settles into a blend of smooth sandalwood and lingering vanilla, maintaining its gourmand character while adding subtle smokiness.

Too sweet burnt caramel waffle
An absolute beast mode perfume - you can't escape the scent once it's been sprayed. This is what a kitchen smells like where the waffle iron was left on for too long, and now the smell of cloyingly sweet, slightly burnt caramel waffles fills the entire room. In my opinion, the fragrance is literally overwhelming, and I would rather recommend Sora Dora Jany if you are looking for a warm puff pastry / pastry / cake scent.😉

... I was looking forward to a truly gourmand fragrance experience, but it just smells like burnt caramel and SMOKE!! Something like that was definitely not to be expected. You just want to avoid this smell at all costs... it is incredibly intense, but absolutely not in a positive sense.
