Vanille Peach

This is one of the best vanilla-based fragrances I have ever tried. I already got my so coveted flacon via eBay and everything about it is just good. Starting with the container, it's just awesome to everyday use and travelling: metallic so it won't break in case you drop it, and protecting the product from the light, and it's so light that it seems like it's empty when you hold it -but it's actually not. That's why they're called "eaux de voyage"! I would also call them "eaux de bonheur" -bonheur standing for happiness. As for the fragrance, I feel like a blast of sweet and warm breeze upon the first spray. I don't know why, for me it smells of hot weather, juicy and ripe peaches combined with a rich and balanced vanilla, sweet but not in a foody-teeny-gourmandy way; as some reviewers have stated previously, it's darker and more mysterious. After a few hours, it settles down to a warm vanilla scent with creamy notes. It's lasting power is remarkable also: two spritzs last all day, even after my evening gym sesion -sweat and shower included. I feel so proud owning this. Strangely enough, either this is a limited edition or it's been discontinued, as it's hard to get and it's not listed in the CSP website any more -why, oh why???? If you love vanilla scents, get hold of a bottle while you can -and given its metallic package I assume this scents can last years and years. My next "catch" is going to be Vanille Citrus, that's for sure.

I only tried a designer knock off of this but it's become one of my very favorite scents. It reminds me somewhat of Serge Lutens Un Bois Vanille but it's not quite as sweet. I'm not good at recognizing notes, but I can say that it smells warm and happy and rich and reminds me of a sunny day in the summer. It has more character and intensity than CSP Vanille Abricot and they don't smell at all alike to me even though you'd think they'd be sisters, i.e., peach and apricot. I feel happy when I wear this and I love getting a whiff of myself!

Peach cobbler and fresh whipped cream. Better staying power than vanilla extreme imo. WHY DID THEY D/C THIS? you can usually find a bottle on amazon or ebay thats very underpriced ;)

vaniglia, pesca, muschio, ibiscus. yummmmmm

After an uncomfortable opening of artificial, canned, peach syrup I start to get something that does remind me of peach rings :). The peach ring phase lasts about an hour and then I start to smell the vanilla, coconut, and what smells like brown sugar. I kind of get the hibiscus the whole fragrance through, even in the beginning where there is peach candy but it's not that strong to me, but it's noticeable. The dry down smells like syrupy peaches on top of vanilla ice cream with a brown sugar crumble. The coconut is there, a bit awkwardly too. Actually, I wish they had axed the coconut in here, in vanille peach I kind of see it as the sore thumb, noticeable but not blending all that well and just being awkward. Overall I like this one, it's definitely peachy. I wish the vanilla was stronger and more creamy, and the brown sugar a little more noticeable. I think the hibiscus added a nice element, but the coconut went too far into tropical land. It's not like the coconut is SO strong, but it does kind of bug me, peachy coconut is a bit meh of a combo to me. I think this is worth buying if you love peaches.
