Un Bois Vanille is an very rich, warm and woodsy vanilla. When I say "warm"--I mean REALLY warm--like, wool blanket by the fireplace warm. Almost stifling. Definitely a cold weather scent in my...

This is definitely a NON-FOODY vanilla, it's complex and very woody, I like it, but I am NOT crazy about it like I thought I would be, I just got my bottle today, still have not made up my mind if...

Really wanted to like this. At first spritz, it's a nice, woody vanilla. Not too overwhelmingly sweet or cloying. But then there's something weird about it. It has a twist of cheap aerosol...

I just tried a sample from aedes. I don't like vanilla scent that is very foody or too sweet. This one is definitely not too sweet without losing the actual vanilla scent. I can detect a bit of...

To me, this is the sugary, caramel dry down of Rahat Loukhoum, or RL minus the sparkling cherry and almond top. It can be cloyingly sweet like candy.. a dash is all it takes.

This is my favorite vanilla, it is woody, and so warm and comforting, yet sexy. This one turned me on to Serge Lutens fragrances. Love it!

Generally, I loathe vanilla fragrances. I find them too sweet and cloying: worn by teenaged girls in pink everything and old women who are trying too hard. However, this one is different. I find...

this lovely vanilla has the complexity that most lack. on initial application, i get a sweet, burnt sugar smell, followed by a quick drydown that has notes of cedar to them - a very nice dry woody...

I got a nice, big carded spray sample of UBV from Aedes. This is a very sweet vanilla! On first spray, I detect a bit of licorice and almond. Upon dry down, it's a simple baby-powder scent. I never...

Sumptous vanilla diffusing its repertoire of scents around notes of liquorice, bee 's wax, bitter almond and musk. Ultimate!

Over sweet vanilla with loads of licorice and candy sugar! Cloying, overwhelming and banal. It stressed me for one hour. I thought I couldn't get out of that toxic cloud. Then it went away without...

Ever on a quest for a more complex, delicious vanilla scent, I tried this one. It seems that this falls into the same camp for me as Trish McEvoy's #9 Blackberry and Vanilla. It smelled lovely...

This is a must-try for vanilla lovers. Many people have compared it to L'Artisan's Vanilia (or, as I prefer to think of it, the Elixir of the Gods), and they are similar, but also very different....

I LOVE this sweet comforting woody vanilla scent for the cold winter days when I'm in the mood for vanilla. This fragrance is a pure delicious vanilla scent-- not the artificial vanilla scent that...

This is a re-write of my previous review .... The licorice exploded on me and was all I could smell after an hour or two. An it was the peppery absinthe type of note that I can't bear ... Another...

I've been loving vanilla fragrances since my first whiff of CSP Vanille Abricot. After hearing all the good things about this, I knew I had to get a bottle. I went ahead and ordered it but found...

The ONLY reason I give this 2 lippies instead of 1, is that on my friend this smells quite good. Soft vanilla blended with very subtle hints of cinnamon and flowers in a cosy mix. On me (and on...
