This is a really beautiful vanilla fragrance that lasts and has complexity. It starts with a vanilla orchid over a gourmand praline pastry accord that suggests a waffle cookie dusted with powdered sugar. It’s delicate and then evolves into an ever darker vanilla pastry accord with a hint of coconut. This is a great smelling vanilla, an expensive smelling vanilla, and the best straight up vanilla I have smelled. It’s f*ing expensive (but not on Ebay right now).
The thing I notice with some of my favorite Krigler fragrances is that they are long lasting but and have a delicate quality. Manhattan Rose is like this, also Lovely Patchouli Night (which is sumptuous), and now Subtle Orchid. For the price (thinking of comps at this price point like Amouage, Orlov, even Tom Ford which have big openings and use synthetics that amplify sillage and extend notes and accords) this reminds me more of natural extracts steeped and distilled into a gorgeous concoction that uses the spraying to release its full bloom. Not sure how Subtle Orchid would fare dabbed.
Subtle Orchid feels light in weight. It has good sillage and projection but it benefits from multiple sprays (like 5-6 plus) in order to get a full effect of wearing perfume, and even with that it feels more like an aura around the wearer, a suggestion. You aren’t going to fumigate anyone with this. That’s the best I can do to describe this effect, because at the same time it’s long lasting, complex, and smells great from beginning to end.
I think the smell is addictive and in a weird way its a body spray vanilla, something so edible delicious and natural that I would like to have on hand all the time and spray with abandon. The coconut is a hint and its sexy. If you like vanilla and praline and coconut and gourmands I doubt you will be anything but pleased with this one.

@ F_A & nooory. Vanilla pods are actually derived from Orchids, therefor a lot of Orchids also tend to smell like Vanilla.. Indeed Subtle Orchid is all Vanilla – Dry down smells like sweet condensed milk. True Gourmand.

They should call it No Orchid. Not flowery notes, just as F_A said no flowery notes whatsoever, it smells just like toffee candies and caramel cookies…

Krigler SUBTLE ORCHID does indeed have a very subtle orchid note! But I think that this perfume is actually misnamed, as it is so sweet that the first thing I thought of upon applying it to my skin was Jessica Simpson TASTE. Thoroughly infused with sugar, SUBTLE ORCHID is more of a confectionary than a gourmand creation to my nose.
That said, there does appear to be a light touch of orchid buried beneath the thick white frosting layer, it’s just that you really have to focus in order to find it. The sillage and longevity are fantastic, and I imagine that this is what workers in the powdered sugar department at Domino smell like upon emerging from a long day’s work.
Although floral lovers will be disappointed, I can definitely recommend SUBTLE ORCHID to those who like to smell edibly sweet!

Don’t know why it is called “orchid” as I get no flowery notes at all. It’s a very “edible” fragrance. On my skin it smells just like Meller toffee candies :)Yummy! If you are into sweet edible scents, try it. The staying power is great.
