(Copy of review posted in Vanille Absolument, because these are the same fragrance, just different names). The only reason I didn't click higher on the price point is that this is often on sale. ...

When I first bought this, I wore it a few times and really didn't like it. The scent overwhelmed me with a note I can only describe as 'greasy' vanilla. Like a cold pot of vanilla, rum and spices...

Dark, gorgeous, boozy vanilla. I'm not a vanilla person but I really love Havana Vanille's moodiness and I can't help but admire its construction. This is the vanilla of rum and cigarillos. (I...

Havana Vanille is an extremely rich, sweet rum and vanilla scent. I love softer, creamier scents, and it wasn't until I read through some of the older reviews that I hit on the extra off-putting...

I really like this dessert-like yet non-foody vanilla perfume but unfortunately my husband seems to really pick up on this mouldy note mentioned by others. He described it as a cold vanilla, like...

This is one of the few Vanillas that i actually enjoy, i love the rum and spices mmmm, I can see how some say this may be to sweet but for me the spice balances it well.

They replaced the divine Vanilia... with THIS? I weep for L'Artisan. Ok, but drama aside, I can imagine some real vanilla freaks loving this (btw it's been renamed Vanille Absolument), but to me...

One of the few vanillas that works on me. Vanilla, rum and dried fruit in the opening (but not everly boozy or sweet), drying down to vanilla and benzoin. A perfume for a pirate's wench.

Musky, musty, stale, moldy. Smells like the refriderator hasn't been cleaned out in a year, or an ancient super cheap hotel room hasn't been aired out in a century. This is a corpse smell. Those...

While I feel it only fair to point out that I tend to like either complex or really sweet vanilla perfumes and may be a bit bias in their favor, I was so disappointed with HV. This isn’t to say I...

Reviewing perfumes is difficult because everyone's taste is different. why should I give a fragrance a low rating just becuase I personally don't like it on me? maybe someone else will love it....

Good at the very beginning....some slight tobacco with the vanilla, but quickly morphed into just a powdery vanilla. Ugh.

There are many notes listed for this perfume, but I mostly get vanilla. The good news is, it's natural, real vanilla! I believe they used the genuine absolute here, which is a delight. The bad news...

Havana Vanille is a genuine vanilla scent with a delicious creamy/milky note. In fact, it reminds me a lot of the steam that comes from soy milk brought to boil, cooked with a piece of vanilla pod....

I had high hopes for this after reading the reviews but it is way too cloyingly sweet, even for vanilla. The vanilla, however, is not the problem; whatever it's layered with is. There is something...
