Never tried the scent in 2009 so I have no memory to compare to the new bottles nowadays, but I mainly get a strong baby powder note. It is nice and subtle. Too bad I can not detect any vanilla rose or frangipani, as I was very excited about this scent profile. The notes mentioned are my favorite notes in perfume, so I am left with disappointment. Still this is a safe clean scent, surely loved by people who adore powdery scents with less sweetness/vanilla.
