Vanille Iconique

Just picked this up on a discount and wow, it's so similar to Vanilla Woods! I love that fragrance, own it in full size and a few travel sprays and know it very well, this is extremely similar. Similar to Cheriosa 40 as well but definitely smokier- I will say it's that type of smokey note some ppl don't like that can be akin to cigarette smoke- if you know Vanilla Woods you know what I'm talking about. I myself like a little smokiness. So far, I'm getting pretty good longevity and silliage is about an arms length 1 hour in. The peach is barely there for me, it's mainly a smokey, caramel-y deep vanilla. So basically, if you're a VW fan and see this for a good price it may be the better option considering it comes in a 100ml for around $65 and VW is only 50ml for $88. Idk, I still adore my VW the best though, but this is sooo close. I'll probably just alternate them. I'll bet it's gonna be better in winter temps (it's currently 95° 🌞)

Feminine, mature vanilla . This a more mature/sophisticated vanilla fragrance. It has peach, magnolia and ambergris counterpointing the wood and vanilla notes. Its sweetness comes from the peach rather than a sugary base. The vanilla is rich and the price point will reflect the use of Tahiti Vanilla Absolute and Bourbon Vanilla Absolute. Ambergris adds richness, tones of floral, spice and an overall blended softness encompasses the wearer. If your 30+ looking for a more grown up vanilla type scent, this is a well done option. Notes according to sample card: Almond, Peach Tahiti Vanilla abs, Magnolia, Cedar Bourbon Vanilla, White Musk and Ambergris

Bought this to layer. It’s a nice, very inoffensive vanilla EDT that smells natural, not overly sweet compared to some other vanillas. Smells almost exactly like 7 Virtues Vanilla Woods on dry down. Have to spray a lot since it’s an EDT, but it’s not terribly expensive for a 100ml bottle. Edit: have had this for almost 2 months, and I really love it. It’s just easy to wear. It’s what I would call a “cool vanilla”, as in closer to vanilla extract as opposed to a warm vanilla that smells more like baked goods. It’s been great over the summer. Not cloying, very comforting. Just love it.

holy!! this is amazing! i seen the comparison to vanilla woods by the 7 virtues and that’s my all time favourite perfume but i can’t justify buying it because the longevity isn’t great and stuff, but i already have had about five or so perfumes from this brand they’re my fav so when it went on sephora for sale i used my points and got it for 18$ and it’s the best bang for your buck!!! please get it. it’s longevity it honestly great

The notes listed above are not accurate. To my nose this is much closer to a fruity vanilla. I believe there is a peach note in the opening. Very similar to 7 Virtues Vanilla Woods but not as intense. I was impressed with performance for it being an EDT.
