    Vanilla, coconut, almond, and a touch of ginger - that's what I get on first dab - this comes across as a sweet (almost too sweet) foody scent on initial application. But within seconds that...

    I tried this a couple of years ago and decided I didn't like it as it was too sweet, I was rather put off by the burnt sugar smell when I initially put it on even though it is a beautifull...

    This is the champagne of vanillas. It's dry -- and woody. Opens very cotton candy like and the dry down is just soft vanilla. It's long lasting and expertly crafted. However -- IMHO you can...

    Great vanilla. Deep, warm, embracing, sensual. I enjoy vanilla very much and own already some vanilla scents, but this is very special. Yes, it IS sweet, but not in a cloying or teenage sweet way....

    I like this! It's very sweet but dries down nicely to a mild vanilla scent. Some vanillas go "dusty" or smell sour on me. I don't know if it's the wood, the coconut or what but this is a nice...

    Now we're talkin'! The first two times I tried this, I was put off by its gooey-sweet top notes. One day, though, I was in a shop and they didn't have anything particularly interesting or new in...

    Ever since I was a little girl, baking in the kitchen, I loved the smell of vanilla. I was always disappointed that I couldn't really smell it on my skin. Now I'm an adult, and I do not want to...

    At first, when I tried Un Bois Vanille I too was unimpressed placing it in the same category along with Pink Sugar (which by the way I do like a lot)... But, on my 2nd try I sprayed more of it and...

    Skin chemistry is a weird thing. Other reviewers have said this was too sweet, but on me, UBV takes on an alcoholic, medicinal edge (the licorice note?). I really wanted to like this scent because...

    Hmm, I'm torn on this one. It's almost too sweet for me. When I first tested it, I thought it was along the same lines as Pink Sugar, which I *hate*. I didn't dislike this one, it just seemed...

    I got a sample of this from Aedes and when asked my husband to give me his opinion of it on me, his eyes lit up and he said, "Wow! I love it." I have rarely gotten such an animated response from...

    I couldn't believe how wonderful this fragrance was when I first sniffed it at Barney's. It didn't take much convincing for me to purchase. I abosolutely love this fragrance. It's not a girly,...

    I wore this today because we're having yet another cold spell, it's snowing, and I thought I'd take advantage. This is so cozy, so comforting, and yet I also find it to be sexy. It's warm vanilla...

    A sophisticated vanilla-based fragrance, minus the usual sugary sweet artificiality. Bitter woods on initial spritz with a smoky caramel center --tonka bean?-- and the drydown/finish is like...

    This was my first introduction to Serge Lutens, and not a very auspicious one. I got it in a decant, and maybe it wasn't that fresh or something, but at first this vanilla made no impression on me...

    In the evening, there's almost always a Henri Bendel Firewood candle burning between some vanilla pillar candles in my living room. There's a huge comfort to me when I smell them, together, and if...

    I was so excited to order this after reading rave reviews in a magazine, and was absolutley disappointed and disgusted when I tried it. I am a huge fan of vanilla but this was just awful.

    There are musicians, like Jimi Hendrix and John Coltrane, artists, like Picasso, and writers like James Joyce, whose work I actually prefer before they got "experimental." So it stands to reason...

    A most creative take on vanilla. On first sniff, I detect a hint of bitter almond, which is a note I usually detest. Here, however, it serves as an excellent foil for the sweeter vanilla. The...
