Van-Ile

This is a very warm and comforting fragrance. It starts out with a fresh and sunny citrus, sparkling orange and lemon. Under this there spreads a lake of golden, eggy, vanilla cake batter. It's like a warm, cuddly blanket to wrap one's self in. It will remind some of a Creamsicle,in a positive way. Worth sampling by all vanilla fans.

Questo profumo ha delle note di vaniglia che si sviluppano piano piano è un profumo discreto molto chic in cui la vaniglia si miscela alle altre note e persiste non scomparendo mai del tutto è una vaniglia non caramellosa ma ricorda la bacca selvaggia e coriacea davvero un capolavoro

I’m in search of a bottle of this, but it’s so hard to find! Pleeease PM me if you have one for sale...

Recently , it seems that I am exigent . This perfume doesn't suit me . The powdery note reminds me to anothers where I didn ́t like . Here this note along with the leather are not so prominent compared to other perfumes , but I feel both don ́t pair well with the vanilla . Vanilla doesn ́t feel like cloying neither resinous , it ́s rather balsamic , soft and powdery . This is feeling ( as always ) is far from the complexity of a vanilla pod but it ́s nice anyway . I think almond here is used to give that powdery texture like many perfumes do . And finally , I can also smell in a small dosage a body of notes that Cecile usually uses in order to achieve her style or signature : heliotropo , frangipani etc ... as a mixture instead isolated . It has a good performance but it ́s not for me .

I smell comfort!! This is warm and voluptuous. There is something so beautifully nurturing here that very much like Heure Exquise and Cuir Beluga reminds me of motherhood (I am not a mother). It is sweet enough that it may also be appreciated if you like your fragrances candied. I'd hate to speak too soon but...I think I love it.
