    I got this fragrance from Sephora and it has turned into one of my favorites! Definite vanilla, with a bit of a chocolate musk. It's warm and sensual, slightly sweet but not sickenly so. Stays on...

    My body chemistry tends to wreak havoc on fragrances, and Mexique is one of the few that seems to really work for me. On me, it becomes this soft, sensual & smoky vanilla - the powdery notes become...

    On me, this smells like the powdery, slightly more sugary cousin of Lavanila's Pure Vanilla. The patchouli note isn't quite as strong (thankfully) as in Pure Vanilla, but it still induces a slight...

    How disappointing! I really wanted to like this product. The package is cute (I have the 5-piece set sampler) and the price is reasonable but the fragance is not what I expected :( I do not like...

    Hmm. . . the jury's still out on this one. I got the sampler pack and this is the one I just HAD to road test first--sure I would love it. Surprisingly, I do not consider this an "edible" scent...

    Vanille Noire du Mexique, it doesn't get much better than this as far as vanilla's go. The patchouli keeps the vanilla from getting too sweet and the bergamot adds a sparkling twist. Add the...

    This is a nice vanilla, not very heavy, a combo of vanilla, rose, jasmine and gentle incense, with a hint of iris, which makes it a bit powdery. It is one of the best in the La Maison de la Vanille...

    I can't say that this is a bad fragrance, because who can argue that wet brownie mix smells bad? But that's essentially all I get from this fragrance after the drydown. There were no layers of...

    This is not a bad vanilla, as it is not sharp or cloyingly sweet like many. However, to me it smells like pure vanilla extract. Cute bottle, but only for lovers of stright-up vanilla, I prefer my...

    This is utterly gourmand, sweet, velvety, and rich. The vanilla in this is a bit more buttery (more "french vanilla") than many. It does not smell like you spritzed on vanilla extract. The base...

    This is a nice fragrance and the price is just right. <br> It's a rich sweet and smoky blend of dark spicy vanilla, some top floral notes and patchouli in the base. Kind of vanilla for grown ups....

    This is a great vanilla fragrance and very reasonably priced. I've been wearing this for a long time. This is a sexy, incensey vanilla that it sophisticated rather than bakeshop.

    I'm in love. Truly my favorite vanilla scent of all time. I'm awful at describing fragrances, but this is just right. Sweet, but not too sweet, powdery, but not too powdery, fruity, but just a...

    This my HG vanilla fragrance. I bought this based on the reviews on this board, and just love it. The price is awesome(about $35 for 3.4 ounces). I would definately buy this again!

    This has the potential to be a truly sexy scent! The vanilla comes out to play, but it's not cloyingly sweet. Then there is a nice powdery note. Usually I'm turned off the the powdery stuff, but...

    I just received this fragrance as a gift, and I absolutely love it! It's very similar to Comptoir Sud Pacifique's Amour de Cacao, but it's much cheaper. It's a very sensual, wearable, spicy...

    It's a lovely creamy and spicy fragrance, though just a teensy bit more spice would be just heavenly. I think the packaging is nice--it kind of looks like a martini shaker, the pricing is...
