Gentle comfort scent. Smells like vanilla ice cream with a hint of talcum powder. Delicate enough a vanilla to be worn in Spring and Summer as well. Sexy in a snuggly kind of way.

I have no problem with the fact that Cara smells of Play-doh and sugar wafers because the combination is comforting and mildly amusing, but I do have a problem with it's lack of sillage and...

Well-executed, gentle anilla-almond scent. Not o er whelming or headache-inducing or adolescent-sweet. Soft and comforting. Impressed with all three fragrances--Cara, Chia and the new Fiore di...

This is the no-sillage version of Etro Heliotrope. Cherry almond, a touch of sugary powder, lots of Play-Doh. I have to stick my nose against my wrist to smell it, but I can still smell it the...

This is just too lovely to pass up. I wanted to try more of Farmacia SS Anunziata's scents after sampling Vaniglia del Madagascar and falling in love. I debated between a sample of this, Chia, and...

I'm a true lover of gourmand fragrances but this stuff was not good at all imo. To my nose it registers as an almost tart wet cardboard box smell? Idk. It's weird....no depth at all. The sillage is...

This is no doubt one pf the best perfumes I have ever had. I love sweet perfumes, but not overly sweet (pink sugar isn't my cup of tea). This is simply heaven in a bottle. I do feel the almonds...

Gourmand sweet vanilla. Notes of almond and vanilla, amber and caramel are all noticeable at the onset, but it dries down quickly to pure vanilla bean. It's lovely, but it's also definitely a foody...

I wanted to like this so badly since my name is Cara (silly, I know). In any case, like the other reviewers have mentioned, Cara is an almondy sweet marshmallow blend that has virtually no lasting...

Let me explain, I don't reach for gourmands very much, but I am so glad that I stumbled upon this perfume line. The scents are all very beautiful, but my absolute favorite one is Cara. This is a...
