    For a vanilla lover, it took me a long time to finally sample this fragrance. I'm not the biggest gourmand lover, and many commonly loved vanillas are WAY too sweet for me, so I always assumed I...

    This is pretty much straight up vanilla to me since all of the other notes are very subtle. It's well done and not sickeningly sweet or cheap smelling, but for the price I thought it would be...

    This is a lovely, well executed vanilla. It is refined and not overpowering, not so foody and not sickly sweet as most vanillas flooding the market these days. SDV starts off with a little...

    This and Tihota are simply the absolute best vanillas I've ever tried, and I have tried many. It is boozy, rich, luscious with it's sweet tobacco and hint of florals deep in the warm golden heart,...

    Ah. Guerlain, you either love or hate me. So much that you have only allowed 2 of your offerings a fixed spot on my dresser. Iris Ganache is one, SDV the other. But these compensate for the...

    What a disappointment! I was so excited about trying this. This is definately not what it is hyped up to be and definately not worth the outrageous price. The first two hours I get a...

    I dislike the opening. It is very rum and alcohol--oppressively so the first hour or so. It then mellows out to the Guerlainade with just a twinge of rum to keep it interesting. Although this is...

    It's no surprise that a Guerlain vanilla would inspire so many superlatives; after all, which other house keeps such a historical good standing with the note? <P> After all the hype and...

    I bought a decant of this off perfume court but came across a seller in the UK selling a decant in the UK. I couldn't wait for the decant to arrive and bought another. When I received it I was...

    I've been wanting to try SDV for ages, and finally remembered to add it into a Perfumed Court order. And of course it's delicious and of course I want a bottle. However, it is incredibly...

    So first let me start off by saying, I noted as Buy Again... but really what I will be doing is purshasing another decant to tie me over until I can buy the real thing. :) What a lovely vanilla...

    I just smell like I've tipped a bottle of vanilla extract over me, its a boozy vanilla type smell (so booozy i smell like stale alcohol) but with an underlying hint of floral which unfortunately...

    I'm amazed at all the negative reviews I've read about this. But then again not all fragrances smell great on everyone and not all fragrances are for every budget. For what its worth I walked by...

    The opening was boozy and harsh, like whiskey-soaked cigarette tobacco. This gave way to a custardy vanilla--not unpleasant--which dried down into the harsh sharpness that I'm all too familiar with...

    I love Guerlain, I love vanilla but I don't reach for SDV at all. What's wrong then? I think, I was attracted to all notes that I love in other perfumes but as I have become familiar with them in...

    The opening on this almost threw me off my chair, which is not easy to do with me. It opened with a heady, boozy, rich liquer vanilla with a hint of a benzoin note, which was actually a bit more...

    The first few times I tried this I was not impressed. However, I keep coming back to my little vial to test again. First, I don't get any of the tobacco notes that people talk about...thankfully!...
