Going through a bit of a vanilla rediscovery phase, so decided to give this one another try. For the first few secs there is something that resembles sour milk in there, making the overall...

I'd have to say this is not just my favorite vanilla-based perfume, but maybe my favorite perfume of all.....up to now. And I've been purchasing and testing samples up the ying yang. DeLISH. ...

Un Bois Vanille is can be succintly described as a rich, creamy, vanilla scent-- with a barely perceptible touch of some sort of alcoholic drink. There is not much "bois" or woodiness in this...

I'm very much a "queen" when it comes to wearing fragrances. I don't mean that other girls wear the stuff of lesser beings or anything like that, but I have a very "commanding" presence, so the...

Gosh....where do I begin with this? Let me begin with some of my background with this fragrance. I first smelt this a few years ago, when I abhorred all vanilla notes in fragrances. Despite...

I am absolutely in love with how Un Bois Vanille smells shortly after it has been applied. For the first hour to two hours (if I'm lucky), Un Bois Vanille has a depth and richness that are simply...

A great vanilla scent, perhaps a 5 even when it has dried down. However, the sillage is nonexistent.... 1 or 2 points have to come off for that.

I can't seem to get enough of this scent. I lean toward fragrances with some vanilla in them, but lots of times they can be sickly sweet and yucky. This is lovely and complex and my bf...

Picture yourself far away from the city, surrounded by tall, hundred-year-old trees, the hush of the forest broken by the crackling of a small fire. In the air there is a nostalgic blend of burning...

I picked this up during a recent trip to Paris. It doesn't last on me at all, and has a strange note that I'm not a huge fan of. However, it is a nice vanilla scent - although not unique or...

Sexy, grown-up vanilla. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the youthful vanilla of Fantasy, Pink Sugar and even Vanilla Fields at your local drug store, but this is in a whole other league. It is...

I originally went to the SL counter to try the Majeste Rose that I'd read about in a magazine. However, I took one whiff of this, on paper only mind you, and I fell in love. Granted, I'm a newcomer...

This is not your daughter's vanilla. It is not a girly, flirty, sweet, insipid vanilla, it's a vanilla with a dark side. This is no cupcake smelling, body spray-ing vanilla, it's a powerhouse. ...

I have loved the smell of vanilla as long as I can remember; I expect with the whole baking thing, it's a primal smell for many. When I first began sniffing perfumes, my younger daughter was...

I have been looking for about 4-5 years for a signature fragrance...something warm, inviting, spiritual....something you'd want to bury your face in. I thought I had found it in Chergui. But...

This is unoriginal and unworthy, and I maintain that the reasons why people like Un Bois Vanille are three: (1) vanilla, the starch of the perfume world, is yummy to most tastes, (2) Serge Lutens...

I have tried MANY (probably too many) vanilla scents. I’m still in search of the perfect vanilla—creamy, smooth, soft and ever so slightly musky with a touch of sweetness that is not cloying or...

I just don't understand SL. I, like many perfume aficionados nowadays, am not crazy about the foody vanilla kick of many popular fragrances, but I'd say I'm still quite tolerant of them. Dior...

I just love it!!!!! Smells so sweet and creamy. The best vanilla I have ever tested, and believe me I have tried so many. I just order for a full bottle, expensive yes, but worthy it. I'm so...

The bitter almond transforms the vanilla into something with character (this is not a vanilla scent for girly-girls, but for women with interesting pasts), but it has a hairspray note (the musk?...
