This is mainly a soft sweet tropical ylang scent, with a smooth minor vanilla background. Ylang is like a honeysuckle aroma but more tropical and heady. This has the signature Guerlain...

This is mainly about the ylang for me, with carnation and vanilla being minor supporting players, It is creamy but it has a slightly musty-ness to it that is bothering me, and it doesn't wow me. No...

No offence to Guerlinophiles here but this is the only one Guerlain I appreciate so far. This is the best rendition of ylang ylang I’ve ever smelled. The first whiff is quite strong, reminiscent of...

Well, I hate vanilla but found this at a car boot sale for £1 so just had to buy it! Wow this has really grown on me, it starts off a bit old womany, but as the day goes on it gets better and...

I sniffed this and it literally made me shiver in dread. I do not like ylang ylang as a note at all--it just smells like all kinds of wrong to me: dry, funeral lilies, all potent and...

Beautiful floral vanilla - I didn't expect to like it this much because of the reviews, but it's a wonderful non-foody vanilla - lovely.

I was really surprised by this scent. I thought I would REALLY like it. But, I never smelled the vanilla. All I smelled was wickedly overdoused bad perfume. Just goes to show you chemistry is...

LOVE the entire Aqua Allegoria line & this is my favorite. Smells like powdery vanilla to me (but much more complex...exactly what you'd expect from Guerlain!). Yum!! If you like sweet scents, try...

A good compromise if you like very sweet florals, but at times look for something less intense for everyday use (e.g. the office). It is inhebriating enough to satisfy the wearer's nose, but not...

I was convinced Ylang & Vanille would smell wonderful on me. How wrong I was. I immediately decided I had to get rid of it, one way or another. I am a vanilla fiend, and I love a good floral...

Ylang et Vanille is a smooth subtle vanilla, clean, could suit most any occasion. Warms to the body during the drydown. Do I detect what seems to be a tobacco note? That must be the ylang with...

Among all the various perfumes that I own, I always come back to this one. I fell in love with it the first time I tried it on. It is a gentle blend of Vanille and Ylang Ylang, and the fragrance...

I'm honestly horrified when reading some of the bitter commentary on this one. Guerlain's Aqua Allegoria Ylang-Ylang et Vanille was the first vanilla fragrance I loved. I've seen reviews saying...

A feminine scent that could easily take one from the work week to the weekend, Ylang & Vanilla would be a great centerpiece for those who have their Aqua Allegorias all lined up. While I am not too...

As an avid collector of the Aqua Allegoria collection, I loved the sweetness of Yland & Vanille. This is one of my top faves in the colleection and is great on a spring day. Also,I love most of...

I so wanted to like this fragrance since I love vanilla, iris and jasmine notes. But in this fragrance, the Ylang-ylang note is overpowering. It's just too much. <p>Luckily I didn't buy it, I...

I find this derivative and common. Guerlain is jumping on the popular vanilla bandwagon. That said, I still consider it bottle-worthy. Why? The floral and vanilla are balanced so well that no...
