    I pick up the orange blossom and bergamot the most. With a name like "vanille", I would expect the dominant note to be just that - vanilla. This was a rather boring perfume to me. There are so many...

    I would love to love this. It's a soft, inoffensive, creamy smooth vanilla in a lovely package, at a good pricepoint, and not worn by everyone. But I would never purchase this. To me, this...

    One of my new favorite scents. It's comforting, non-perfumey and gourmand but not too foody. I don't get the reviews stating that this is more of a floral than a vanilla because it is just the...

    This is a definite floral vanilla with no foody undertones whatsoever. For this reason alone I do not care for it. I cannot pick up much vanilla at all.

    One of my favorites. This smells divine on my skin. I usually only wear this in the winter, but I reached for this on July 4th and it still worked (meaning it wasn't too heavy for the heat). I...

    After receiving a sample of this with a swap and reading the reviews (I hadn't previously heard of this brand or scent), I was excited to try it! Imagine my surprise when, on me, it dried down to...

    I actually really liked this, and I'm kicking myself for not picking up a full bottle when I saw it for 50% off. A lovely, creamy, floral vanilla. I'm usually a gourmand vanilla girl, but this...

    More of a citrusy-floral scent with a soft vanilla background rather than a rich, gourmand vanilla scent. I find it unique and a must-try even if you don't like vanilla scents. It's sophisticated,...

    Very clean and fresh with citrusy top notes and white floral middle notes that eventually settle down into a very soft floral vanilla with a musky edge. The citrus makes it a tad masculine, but not...

    Well I must say I agree, it really does seem like SL Un Bois Vanille at first, and that is what makes me scared of it as I smell a distinct licorice note while it is in the vial. But when applied...

    Upon first blast, Calypso Vanille reminded me of Serge Lutens Un Bois Vanille. But then those gorgeous smokey, woody, caramelish, vanilla Un Bois Vanille topnotes quickly disappeared and what was...

    This is a truly gorgeous vanilla influenced scent; unique, complex, beautiful. It is a rich, warm, malty vanilla, but not quite a foody vanilla. It doesn't dry down with the foody/smoky vanilla...

    I didn't detect as much vanilla as I did a sweet orangey floral that I found interesting, but a little heavy, and it ultimately made my nose itch. It's not really the soft comforting scent I was...

    Did not smell like vanilla. Too flowery. Reminds me of a cross between Emeraude (sp?) and Krystle. I'd call it a flowery musk.

    This is a very classy vanilla. Not a foody vanilla. This reminds me of Serge Lutens un bois vanilla.

    Calypso Vanille is a very dry, woody vanilla that isn't in the least foody, and is obviously based on pure vanilla bean and not vanilla extract. The dry woodiness reminds me very much of Serge...
