Just straight vanilla on me no smoke no rum, just vanilla extract. I tried this in summer and as it is more of a comfort scent on me I might try again when the weather gets cooler to see if its...

I do appreciate this isn't a real sweet vanilla - sometimes a person doesn't want to smell like a cupcake shop. I also really like the powder element in this fragrance. The vanilla here on my skin...

Gourmand in that vanilla is basically gourmand. Spiced vanilla with definite rum notes is what I get and it dries through a distinct Egg Nog phase. Not sure where I get the sense of nutmeg, but...

The first thing you should know about Havana Vanille is that it is very soft. Repeat: very soft. This puts Havana Vanille in the same category as Bois Farine as far as weight, presence, and...

While I expected to love this, being someone who adores Guerlain's SDV, I was shocked to find that I can barely smell Havana Vanille. I have and love several L'Artisan's, highest up on the Love...

I love vanilla scents and was really looking forward to trying this one. Although the vanilla base is lovely, I did not smell the rum, spice, floral, powder, or other notes in this. All I got was...

I got to sniff this at one of the L'artisan boutiques in Paris. It was not yet released in the US and I was very tempted to buy it. But, I didn't love it enough to take the plunge. Not sure if I...

I absolutely love this! I get quite a bit of the vanilla and tobacco leaf, and a dollop of rum. To me this is literally a cross between Guerlain's Spiritueuse Double Vanille and Tom Ford's...

To me this smells like vanilla milk with some rum in it that used to be hot and yummy but nobody drank it and now it`s cold and just sitting there. I actually thought it was nice but I like my...

I was lucky enough to try a sample yesterday, gifted to me by a dear friend. Unfortunately, I set the bar too high on this one and I'm disappointed. I agree with Dinahad below about the similarity...

This is among one of the only "full bottle worthy" vanillas to have launched in 2009. There have been several launches, but none that have worked for me. That being said, Havana Vanille is a light...
