Vanity Femme Essence

I’ve owned this one for three months now and each time, I kid you not, each time I wear this I swoon. I have quite a few perfumes in my collection and usually I can categorise them into, you know, sweet or floral or woody or spicy or clean. This one? She’s simply elegant. And in a way, the name is right - it is the essence of a woman - captured in a bottle. Look, the bottle looks a little cheaply done in terms of finish but to me it doesn’t matter. I got this for 24SGD, and it is the most expensive smelling thing I have. I honestly can’t make out any notes that stand out in this one but it’s so smooth and so soft it’s like a cashmere shawl draped around your shoulders. It somehow reminds me of posh weddings and purses lined with velvet and lace handkerchiefs and fancy lipstick tubes. Never before have I been this mesmerised by a perfume. You can’t go wrong with this one. You simply can’t.

Please don't listen to people saying it's a bug spray. The same as labeling perfumes with a citrus note a ''cleaning product'' smell. If there does exist a bug spray with such a pleasant fruity smell, please suggest me that spray, But you wouldn't be able as it doesn't exist. If some people have some weird associations reminding them something it's not objective. This perfume is very pleasant fruity floral soft elegant scent perfect for spring and summer. Definitely a people pleaser. It's indeed similar to Marry me by Lanvin, Trussardi Donna, Loewe Solo Ella edp and even J'adore, but softer, younger and less citrusy more peach dominant. It's not something groundbreaking but it's really enjoyable. Even my girlfriend who doesn't care about perfumes much, but who nevertheless have a good taste, loved this scent so much, that she asked me to order it to her!

I bought this on Amazon as part of a travel perfume set and had never smelled it until today. I love it! It has a very fresh citrus scent that reminds me of Light Blue. It is not a sweet orange it is a ripe orange peel scent that is very refreshing! This perfume is a strong skin scent on me and lasted a decent amount of time. I recommend this perfume if you like citrus fresh scents.

My most complimented fragrance I have ever own, everyday wear, floral fruity, blind buy safe, I get the bug/hair spray scent related but I don’t mind smelling like one.

spiced, shampoo floral. not usually my vibe, but for some reason I love this. LOVE. Unique to anything in my collection as well.
