Vanilla

I bought this as a blind buy. Im a vanilla lover. I love everything vanilla. First time I tried it - I must be honest - I was dissapointed. I had other expectatons, but from prevoius experience I know I need to try a perfume a few times before really tell an honest opinion. After a few times I started to love this. First time It was like the vanilla sugar powder you use in cooking with a hint of sunscreen added and something I could not pin point. It was weird as the sunscreen scent keept annoying me and I thought I would not like this perfume at all. Well, after trying this a few times and my boyfriend saying I smell like cookies (He thought I had eaten cookies, and im like "Uhm..no, I havent had any cookies") I really started to enjoy this perfume. Its sweet, vanilla sugar powder, soft buttery cookies, vanilla ice cream. For vanilla lovers out there I do really recommend this. The vanilla scent last very long if sprayed on clothes. Its a skin close scent, but can be detected if you have somene at an arm length. If you wanna smell like a delicious vanilla cookie this is a perfect perfume for you!

I have the edt version and I've tried the edc in store once. They're pretty similar but I haven't tried them side by side, the edt lasts much longer though. I find it extremely similar to Solinotes Vanille, both in scent and longevity. The main difference is that the sweetness in Solinotes is almost mentholated and intoxicating to a degree that makes it overwhelm any scent you try to layer with it. Alyssa Ashley on the other hand blends into other scents and warms them up (I find it especially useful with some of my cheaper dupes that need some rounding out). I've tried loads of vanillas for layering, and for my purposes this is the best one because it's longlasting, really linear and blends well. I don't really use either on it's own, but I can imagine Solinotes would be more interesting.

In my experience most perfumes who advertise themselves as vanilla-driven don’t actually smell like vanilla. At all. Maybe it’s because I tend to go for photorealistic gourmands, but to me Vanilla by Alyssa Ashley is one of the only true vanilla scents I’ve tried. And considering its extremely low price, it’s a no brainer. Longevity is pretty good too. It’s sweet, but not nauseating, and the dry down is delicate but you can tell it’s still there. Someone on Fragrantica Italy said it smells like childhood and I have to agree, it’s nostalgic and comforting at the same time, like baking cookies with your mum on a sunday afternoon. It’s my go-to daily perfume

Absolutely in love! Smells like pure vanilla with a caramel touch. This was the first perfume I bought that made me love warmer tones. I usually wear aquatic and fruity perfumes. But have been wearing all december and will keep wearing this forever. It's warm and sweet without being nausious. Feels like newly baked cookies. As for the longivety it could be better, it last pretty well on clothes but I have to reapply it for others to smell it without giving me a hug. Have bought the EDP versio and hope it lasts longer.

wanna feel like a genuine snack? this makes you smell like you’ve been in a French boulangerie all day and works so well by layering it with other perfumes that compliment the very linear vanilla. some say it has very slight lasting ability and sillage but i have to disagree. for an EdT this is very long lasting (especially on clothes) and i’ve gotten so many compliments when wearing it, even from people just in passing. throw in the affordable price and you’ve got yourself a must have for vanilla lovers.

Lovely, 90s style vanilla, bordering on French Vanilla. I don’t find it to be plasticky or muddled by other notes like caramel, brown sugar, cotton candy, sugary frosting, florals, etc, which I dislike about many vanilla perfumes. I do detect the tiniest bit of citrus when I first spray it, but then it settles into a nice vanilla custard or pudding type of a vanilla scent. Huge bottle, too, so this will last a while. I think this is one of those seldom mentioned gems of the 90s, and I love it.

shocking how underrated it is!! from my experience wearing this as my signature scent for half a year it's a beautiful, simple, pure creamy vanilla scent. on me it lasts pretty long and has pretty great projection but its different for everybody. works very well in the summer, it's not overly sweet. i would definitely recommend it to any vanilla lover who doesn't feel like spending a lot of money on fragrances

This one is just great! Sure it doesn’t last, it’s quite shit in the department, but it smells so lovely. It’s a straight up comforting freshly washed sheets homemade cookies type of scent. I use it as a bed spray and spray it on when i get out of the shower and it’s heaven. I dont recommend it as an actual stand alone perfume but for that price you can’t go wrong.

i was really surprised about the citrus notes listed, i don't smell any citrus at ALL on me. it has very sweet undertones but leaves a super smokey-sweet vanilla on my skin. i hated this at first because i thought it smelt super incense-y and mossy, but after a few days of sitting on my shelf it's gotten sweeter and more musky. i love it!!

I really like this one! It ́s a warm, sweet vanilla scent. I ́m almost out and I would definitly repurchase again. It ́s quite similiar to "Yves Rocher - Bourbon Vanille", even though I think that one is SLIGTLY better. I own both though and would continue to buy both because although their similiar they are also different. :) RATE: 7/10

It's wild how much my taste has changed in one year! I remember smelling this last year and I could not stand this scent. Recently I went to spray this on my sleeve out of curiosity and this smells gorgeus to me now. I'll definitely buy this soon because I feel this would be perfect to use in combination with almost any perfume, really.

This is a pure vanilla! Since vanilla is my favorite smell and in the food also my favorite taste I love this perfume.In the beginning I can't feel just vanilla but also a little lemon and maybe some jasmine but after 20 minutes remains just pure vanilla. Very similar if not identical with Vanille Bourbon from Yves Rocher.

I’m not usually into sweet or gourmand but I do love vanilla and this is pure photorealistic vanilla. It’s like sniphing vanilla powder out of the jar. I also associate ‘vanillekrans’ , the classic danish butter cookie. And it’s slightly boozy. Really love it. It’s for satisfying the Vanilla urge I get from time to time.

What a fragrance For the price and the minimal presentation it smells divine Vanilla with roasted nuts this is what I get I didn’t get any coconut from it It reminded me of other fragrances such as Elborn by carner Barcelona I loved it and enjoyed it very much It is proof that scents shouldn’t be overpriced Incredible

i love this perfume! the vanilla scent is like ice cream and cookies. my sister had this and i thought she had cookies with her. such a nice smell that u want more of. i dont know if it lasts that long cause i cant really smell it. but other people can. def recommend for a gourmand lover 10/10!

This perfume is special to me. Smells like native coconut vanilla shampoo so it brings me memories of meeting my husband because back then i used that shampoo <3 Besides that there is nothing very special about it. A sweet vanilla musky scent, vanilla that feels clean, very affordable

I have purchased this item a few times in the past, it’s definitely worth the cheap price. As a vanilla lover I could not dislike it-it smells like pure vanilla, except for the first 5-10 minutes when the main (rather unpleasant) note is citrusy.

I love vanilla and this scent is the perfect one. It does not smell like citrus or flowers it just smell like pure vanilla!! I love this one perfume. It smells very strong so it keeps with you a day or two. I just love it!

A nice soft vanilla that turns almost a tiny bit incense-like on my skin. I love that the citrus isn't overpowering at all, it's just barely there to make the vanilla a little bit more fresh. A great go-to daily scent.

Sweet, very classic, and pleasant vanilla. It evokes a nostalgic longing for the carefree '90s. The simplicity and coziness of the composition bring a lot of joy and pleasure to wear. It does require reapplication.
