    All I can say is there is way too much hype on this. I was not impressed at all. There's just not enough of something in this scent. It's missing so much,it's rather boring. There is nothing...

    I love this to the point that I crave it. It's evocative of my romantic imaginings of Aztec Ruins, and magical, sensual Mexican nights. La Maison describes it as "a voyage, a sea of white panamas...

    One of the best La Maisons--main complaints are the deliciously spicy topnotes disappear in a few minutes, leaving just the sweet vanilla base behind; staying power is also not too good, about 4...

    This is an absolutely gorgeous, sofisticated vanilla, my favourite of the LMdV line (followed by Sauvage de Madagascar). It's a powdery vanilla scent that has just enough spice and a smokey kick...

    Smells awesome at first but is very weak and has to be refreshed. That in mind, it's very reasonably priced. I will probably buy it again.

    This was sort of a disappointment. It's too soft on my skin and I don't pick up anything more than a teensy bit of spice and vanilla. In fact, it's very close to TBS's Vanilla. Which is cheaper.

    A spicy yet very wearable vanilla, darker and sexier than any other fragrance from this line. The powdery vanilla note is subdued here. The price can't be beat, either. Terrible lasting power.

    This is a nice, light, lovely vanilla scent, but from the description, I was expecting something spicier. Lasting power isn't all that great, but it's so cheap that's not a major complaint.

    I received a bottle of Vanille Noire du Mexique in a swap and I've been really enjoying it! It's a complex, creamy vanilla with a spicy/peppery kick. In my personal opinion it is not as foody as...

    I'm not traditionally a vanilla person but this grew on me. I got used to smelling it and missed it if I didn't put it on. It is soft, simple, smooth and easy. All without coming off as childish...

    Mexique is a worthy addition to my vanilla collection. I like that it’s not too foody due to the floral notes and patchouli. Or too sweet, because I already have several sweet ones. Mexique is...

    I agree with the reviewer directly below me, this smells like a combination of vanilla lotion and floral soap -- and not in a good way. The one saving grace is that it didn't last forever on me.

    Bought this stuff online because of the raves at MUA. Smelled very boring on my skin, like a mixture of cheap vanilla Bodylotion and a floral drugstore soap. Sold it immediately at ebay (5,00 €),...

    A wonderfully spicy and sophisticated vanilla. When I read that this scent contained patchouli, I thought I would absolutely detest it - however, it's so well blended that the patchouli acts as a...
