    I bought Cristobal on impulse on a very dark December day in Copenhagen while roaming the xmas-fuelled stalls of ILLUM BOLIGHUS searching for a scent to envelope myself into. This fragrance has...

    This fragrance is for evening. The warmth of the notes makes it perfect for autumn and winter. And it's always a good sign when people stop to ask you what perfume you're wearing. Looove the fig...

    At first this was like a sweet fizzy drink like creamy soda, with a hint of pepper, although i know thats not in the notes. Very soon the vanilla/patch/sandal base comes out and for me anyway, is...

    Yum, I get a lot of vanilla and patchouli, this is quite rich on my skin and I'm really enjoying it. This girl is your typical copy-cat, follow the leader type girl, but hey she smells good...

    I was a bit disappointed with this one. Yes, Cristobal has its good qualities, and it doesn't smell at all bad .... but I'm getting way too much Eau de Cream Soda upon application. On my skin, it...

    From the notes, I was very expecting to fall for this frag. I am a sucker for Jasmine, fresia, bergamot, carnation. Indeed, this was not the case. Very average perfume, not something I would...

    First off, the bottle is beautiful: One of the prettiest swirled glass and gold fillagree top. The scent is sophisticated and approachable with the blend of green fruit and leaves, sassy young...

    This was an impulse buy in Paris and I've never regretted it. I love vanilla notes in my fragrances, and this delivers well, with a floral punch that is truly fascinating. Caution, though, in...

    Rich and sensual, a previous review nailed it--it's like Adrienne Vittadini with a fig note. The fig and honey are anchored by a quality vanilla. A smoother and sweeter fig than Diptique's or...

    In addition to Diptyque Philosykos Cristobal is the least offensively -- overly sweet fig fragrance I've found. It's sweet but not overly so -- and it's soft. I would recommend this to anyone...

    On me, this fragrance smells very similar to TBS Vanilla: warm, sweet, yummy, creamy vanilla. However, it's much more complex and sophisticated, which I like. My fiance loves it when I'm wearing...

    A little sultry, a little sweet, a little mysterious and a tad complex. What is there not to like? This scent surprised me because I was convinced I would like Rumba by Balenciaga but it was too...

    This is a sweet, warm, floral vanilla. It is very nice but reminds me of so many other fragrances. Nothing stands out about it. The bottle is beautiful. I think it would be a fine everyday...

    At first, when the SA sprayed it on my arm, I thought "maybe too much". But the drydown was great. I love this, it's comforting. It has fig, jasmine, vanilla, some patch I think..Normally jasmine...
