My cheapie, quickie fix for hot days when Serge Lutens' Un Bois Vanille is a little too thick and rich!
Sugar Vanilla Fantasy contains vanilla, coconut milk, sugar cane, cedar and sandalwood. Despite the name, it's less sugary than the signature Vanilla Fantasy. This is warm and complex, and the vanilla doesn't overpower the milky coconut and the woods. I do wish it was a bit stronger because this can hardly be smelt unless you hold your nose to your skin.
I own quite a few other Body Fantasies sprays so I know they are usually quite a bit stronger than this, but I guess the good point is it's not going to offend anyone if you reapply throughout the day. Besides, for such a cheap price, I feel almost bad talking about lack of projection.

I'm a vanilla fan and like the simple stuff not with the caramel, fruitiness, spices etc just straight vanilla. This is just that and so light that it becomes a skin scent. I really like this a lot and did not expect it to be one of my favourite body sprays!

Update (01/09/2008): I was spraying some earlier and after discussing with a MUAer i realized this review is for Vanilla Fantasy not Sugar Vanilla Fantasy (which i thought was the same thing)

I love Vanilla Fantasy, so i was pretty excited to see the large size bottle of this on sale at walgreens. I thought I would like it even more, because it sounded more complex. Got it home and spritzed it on after a shower, basking in the glory of another cheap drugstore gem...until....whats this? Play dough? Salty stinky fake vanilla, play. dough. I assumed this would be a richer foodier vanilla fantasy. But no. I kept it around for awhile since it was so huge and the picture of brown sugar cubes on the label looked so promising, but every time i tried it again it was the same. I had to toss it into the trash, which i never do! Poo.

i actually liked this one. i was alittle bit worried about it when buying it because i had tried the cucumber melon fantasy and it was terrible. it didnt last at all. it lasted like 30 seconds and then it was gone. but for this one it was different. i smelled great and it lasted alot longer. i would buy this again

I tried this and the regular Vanilla Fantasy, and definitely like this one better - and it really does smell like B&BW warm vanilla sugar (which I like, but the body lotion smells a bit off on me...like playdough). This is a sugary, but light, vanilla with a tinge of coconut. I like the sandalwoody scent I get as it dries down - it's cozy. I don't think I'll buy it again simply because I think I'm going to look for something a bit more complex, this is a comforting scent that I'm planning to wear this winter when I hang out with friends.

I'd buy it again, but I prefer Cotton Candy. Sugar Vanilla has a nice scent, not too strong yet not too soft.

I definitely like this one better than PdC's Cotton Candy. To me it smells kind of like a vanilla/marshmellow-y scent. Smells sweet & comforting, but not over the top & layers pretty well with other sweeter or fruity scents. It actually helps take the edge off my sweet tooth a little. After I smell this I don't feel as much the need to go grab a piece of candy -- I almost feel like I've already had one LOL!

I agree with most of the reviews here..its a warm, vanilla scent similar to BBW's. Nice, comforting, not too sweet.

Just smelling the bottle, I liked the vanilla in this spray much more than the "plain" Vanilla Fantasy spray--it's softer, less foody, and less sweet, despite the Sugar in the name. However, on my skin the vanilla disappeared immediately and within seconds I was left with nothing but generic musk that lingered for hours. Very odd.

It's a dead ringer for the dsct. Bath and Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar. It has a note in it though, I cant put my finger on it but I'm not crazy about it. It seems to overpower the vanilla. I like pure vanilla scents more, like the PDC Vanilla Fantasy, or Dollar General knockoff, which is the exact same thing and the staying power lasts even longer.

But, if you liked B&BW's WVS, you'll love this!

I exchanged the regular Vanilla Fantasy for this one. The Sugar is much lighter and doesn't dry down to a strange apple/pipe smoke smell. This is a soft vanilla that smells like sugar cookies. It layers nicely with the other fragrances I wear, too: Coco, Coco mademoiselle, Kors, and Addict.

A guilty pleasure for me as it is a very inexpensive drugstore/discount dept store find. I gather it is supposed to be a BBW knockoff of their warm vanilla sugar, but IMHO it smells better. For the money, I'll stick with this. It has a brown sugar tone to it along with the vanilla. The body spray does last quite long on me & my clothes. Because I have so many different perfumes & body sprays, it's taking me a while to get thru this 8 oz bottle I got last year about this time. If ever do finish it, I'd repurchase.

I wasn't sure how this product would smell, but I loved it instantly! Its a warm vanilla scent but not too strong, because the sugar scent makes it a bit sweeter. I love using this!

Great deal. I love this line! Its the perfect vanilla scent and you cant beat the price. Pick this up at any drugstore. This is a knockoff of the Bath and Body works vanilla scent but cheaper! It could last a little longer though. ALso has a nice cooling effect. I also have the lotion and the candle in this scent as well as in the regular vanilla fantasy line. Both are great scents.

Tried it and thought it smelled like s*** on me...I must have some awful kind of chemistry clash with this stuff.

I love this stuff. Yes, it is a knockoff of the BBW Warm Vanilla Sugar, but better IMO. It's not a foody vanilla, it's a sultry scent.You can find it just about anywhere & it is cheap. It lasts longer than BBW body sprays. The candle in the same scent is just as lovely.

Knockoff of BBW's Warm Vanilla Sugar. I don't like sugary vanilla scents as much as the true or richer, foody vanillas though, so I won't be buying this again. I like the Creme Brulee and regular Vanilla Body Fantasies stuff more than this.

I love this! Not only it has a very good staying power, it also reminds me of B&BW Warm Vanilla Sugar which is my favourite scent from B&BW.
