Delicious Vanilla

I love vanilla scents but I'm very picky about them since many can be quite sickly-sweet/nauseating. This was a pleasant surprise. It's light, warm, and sweet but definitely not cloying. As others have mentioned, this is a creamy, smooth scent and yes, there's something comforting about it too. I also smell more than just the vanilla, particularly on the dry-down. Given how light and clean this fragrance is, I usually layer it with specific other scents. This one goes on first, I allow it to dry down for a few minutes, then I dab a different scent on my pulse points-- the result is always amazing. That being said, I absolutely agree with those who mentioned the truly offensive smell of the top. My whole room smelled of that awful, strong, plastic smell. I feel like you'd get sick from being anywhere near it, so I put it in the recycling bin the next day. As someone suggested, spray your perfume a few times (not on yourself) just to clear the line, as the first few sprays will carry that nasty plastic smell.

I am biased towards this scent because it was my signature perfume in college. A warm soft slightly powdery vanilla, one of the most perfect vanillas to me. Even as I have purchased more modern ones throughout the years that I enjoy such as Billie Eilish or Kayali Vanilla, I still reach for Gale Hayman Delicious Vanilla. 'Vanilla' is basic but it's hard to get right, some are too sweet, too spicy, too boozy, too powdery, too fake smelly etc. But Delicious Vanilla is none of those things. When I want to be comforted all day, I reach for this. Men loooved it too!!! I no longer have a signature scent. These days I reach for many different perfumes depending on the season and my mood, but when I wear Delicious Vanilla my husband remembers this smell and will still compliment me on it all these years later!

A gentle white vanilla with a light floral presence. Similar to a quiet version of Watkins White Vanilla - the kind you buy to create a truly white frosting. The musk and amber here are so soft as to be almost silent supporting notes. I especially like the touch of Powder provided by Heliotrope, whispy and charming. Fluffy white frosting WILL come to mind! The only negative? Delicious Vanilla's sillage is so light as to classify as a body spray. Fortunately, the price is right! I use it on my hair, creating a soft, warm aura that accents other fragrances nicely.

Love it! Amazing for layering amazing for anything and everything! Discountinued!Bought blind buy for $15 dollars now is almost $60!😢😢😢

Delicious Vanilla...I'm lost here. I love vanilla. Did I buy a bad bottle ?? I found this at Ross the other day for 12$. I've always seen Delivious Cotton Candy in stores, and knew about Delicious chocolate and Amber from this site, but I never even knew there was a delicious Vanilla in this line. The lady working at Ross told me she's only seen the cotton candy and chocolate on the shelves, so I had to buy this rare gem. I wAs so excited, like a kid in a candy store. I would've been even more excited to find the Delicious Amber, but that's only because I already own a few handfuls of vanilla scents. But I love vanilla and I was proud to discover this, so why not? On here, it's compared to warm vanilla sugar and vanilla lace , both are frags I own and like. I didn't find this comparable to either. This is a vanilla with a white floral twist, just as the notes suggest. Very unusual IMO. I was thinking this would be a straight vanilla. However, It's still linear despite the added white florals. The vanilla is very syrupy and synthetic, and there's this strange smell I can't quite pinpoint, but it kind of reminds me of a plastic doll head as strange as that sounds. So obviously, the vanilla wasn't too pleasing, and I very much dislike white florals, so this was an epic fail for me. It smells very cheap in any case. I wouldn't wear it nor would I pass it off to a friend. I was so excited to find this, but the excitement ended there. The only thing I liked was the cute bottle with the Kitty on it. I'm a cat lady for sure, so maybe I will be able have the cute bottle again once I try the other ones from this line. I've read the reviews for delicious cotton candy where people described a "skunk" smell. I kind of got the same problem here, so mane it is in fact a bad bottle. Who knows. I'm disappointed either way.
