A complete knock off of Hanae Mori.... to the tee! Forgettable at best. Perfect for all of the softies in the bunch.

I was not a fan of vanillia fragrances until I tried Un Bois Vanille.
I love the complexity of this delicate woody smoky vanilla perfume.
Indeed Un Bois Vanille means vanillia wood.
A very...

Serge Lutens is an artist and Un Bois Vanille was his masterpiece. The PERFECT vanilla. Not too sweet. Not to spicy. It has a personality of it's own. You can smell the woodsy in it and then you...

Proof that vanilla does not have to be babyish or artificial. This reminds you that vanilla is a spectacularly beautiful smell produced by a natural plant -- not the usual smell of store brand...

Hmmm. On my skin, this reminds me of a softer, subtler, less strident version of *ducks*... Loulou by Cacharel. It's the vanilla base, the woody notes and what must be the liquorice - if I recall...

I ordered this on a Wednesday from Aedes, got my ship confirmation within an hour and got the package on Friday! But since this isn't a review on Aedes I'll talk about Un Bois Vanille. This is my...

I have been searching for the perfect vanilla scent for a long time. I have tested so many that turned to sweet or just smelled fake. I just about gave up on vanilla until I had heard rave after...

**updated Aug 2010** I'd like to rescind my original negative review. This is dark, woodsy, and delicious. LOOOOOVE.

A beautiful rich, sexy, complex, womanly (not girly) vanilla. After trying this, I've given up my quest for the perfect vanilla. I found it right here!

Upon first sniff, I fell in love. There will never be another Vanilla for me. Clean and clear Vanilla, with a base of almond and musk to anchor it. Good Bye L'Artisan Vanille, you had too much...

If you want to smell like a Krispy Kreme donut or a piece of poundcake then you will hate this vanilla. But if you want to smell like a sex goddess with a lot of mystery, this is the scent for you....

I used to be a huge lover of vanillas. If a new vanilla came out, I would be first in line to get it. But life does not remain the same....never in the same place in the river...etc. etc....

This is a perfect vanilla fragrance. It’s kinda like Baby Bear’s porridge: not too sugary but sweet enough to be comforting. I can’t stop sniffing my wrist when I wear this. It is soft and...

I did not expect to like this. I am a vanilla fan but often go for the foody simple vanillas over the complex ones. This is a good vanilla though. It is sweet enough to make my mouth water but...

Lovely vanilla scent that starts off quite sweet, but the woods emerge after about 5 mins and pretty much deepen and wipe out the majority of the vanilla which was a little bit of a disappointment...

I found my perfect vanilla scent!!! That's IT! Few months ago I got it in a sample and I fell in love with this scent, so I knew I needed to get the whole bottle. I was so lucky to finally get it...

I do love vanilla, in my cookies as well as in my body lotions and baths. And I do love licorice - in my mouth but not as a fragrance! How could anyone create such a horrible fragrance?

From the looks of the other descriptions and notes of this fragrance - my idea of it was more towards L'Artisan Vanilia or maybe SMN Vaniglia. Un Bois Vanille is a smoky-sweet vanilla.
