Pros & Cons
- ✅ This is an absolutely beautiful vanilla. The opening is a bit sharp but delicious like licorice that fades into a slightly woody but sweet vanilla. If you are a vanilla collector this is an absolute must.
- ✅ I am addicted to. It is a smoky-vanilla, almost caramelized but no sugary smell. ... I really had the impression of not very good silage and projection but my parents said they could feel it even after some hours and not being close to me...
- ✅ This is not a gourmand vanilla. It's floral, balsamic, and a juicy kind of green. The powdery sandalwood shines as it dries down, with a light and ambery sweetness. I don't think I've ever smelled a more beautiful vanilla-based scent.
- ❌ I wanted to love this so bad but it didn’t work well with my body chemistry and smelled like rotten eggs.
- ❌ Warm & smoky vanilla with sandalwood. There is no complexity here, no twists or turns. Straight up woodsy vanilla. ... poor performance and an unjustifiable price tag.
- ❌ Nice vanilla perfume, but nothing special. Kind of disappointing for a very expensive perfume!
- ❌ Warm & smoky vanilla with sandalwood. ... It’s a nice scent, but not earth shattering with poor performance and an unjustifiable price tag.
- ❌ This a nice, like a more feminine version of Grand Soir ... Sillage seems fairly quiet though.
