La Nuit Trésor Vanille Noire

This LNT flanker is a unicorn in some countries, mine included. So I bought a 100 ml bottle of it from a foreign site, just like I did with a few other perfumes that I couldn't find in my country. And let me tell you, this flanker of LNT is well worth the wait! It is sinfully delicious, keeping the OG's fruity opening and gourmand depth, but with warm honey, oud that adds a dark, spicy side to the scent, and a scrumptious vanilla that has my eyes close in delight. This vanilla is the sensuous sister of the one in LVEB Vanille Nude. Between LVEB Vanille Nude and LNT Vanille Noire, the latter is the winner. It has more depth, better sillage, and, at least on me, it lasts longer. Now, is LNT Vanille Noire better than the OG LNT? Well, I think it depends on what your tastes are. To me, the Vanille Noire flanker is everything the OG is, and more. I had the OG in the 2015 formulation and enjoyed my 100 ml bottle to the last drop. But somehow I never bought it again after finishing it, as I felt it lacked something. That something is the sultry vanilla and honey in LNT Vanille Noire, rounding up the scent to perfection. In the end, I feel I should add that this perfume is exclusively for gourmand and vanilla lovers. It's like a sweet warm hug on cold wintry days.❄️☃️🎄❤️🔥

I love this!!!! It was a complete blind buy since it is impossible to get in the US. I ordered it off eBay from France. It took weeks to get here. And I was nervous because it was expensive, and I don't like oud. So many things could have gone wrong. But they didn't. It went so right. I don't get oud. I also don't really get leather. What I do get is the most glorious honey-rose. But not even a really cloying rose. Just luxury. Lancome used to sell the best lip balm in their Absolue line - Honey Rose. It's been discontinued and it's impossible to find. But La Nuit Tresor Vanille Noire definitely reminds me of it. It's a winner for me.

I love her. I might be slightly biased with this line because I find them utterly gorgeous - vanille noire is no exception. Like La Nuit Tresor, she has that beautiful sophisticated and warm oriental DNA. But the vanille and oud elevates to an incredibly sexy and seductive level - it's not sweeter or syrupy like the honey note would have you believe. The dry down sees a little more of a woody/earthy note come out to play, but always remains a soft oriental at it's core. I find this more intimate than LNT, but I'm not mad at that. All in all I give her an 9.0/10.

I am very confused with the evolution this perfume has had. I bought it about 2 months ago. I tested it in store and in the beggining it smelled like a deep rich vanilla, dark, sexy, very alluring. Lately I am only smelling the Tresor DNA (which I am not a fan of by the way) Has this happened to anyone? the perfume changing dramatically it ́s performance/notes? I am keeping the "love" rating until I figure out if this is a "climate" issue and it ́s changed because it ́s winter here. But if this remains exactly like this it will become a "dislike"

I love this whole line so my review might be a bit biased. I blind bought this after success from the OG la unit, a la folie and le Parfum. On first spritz I wasn't wowed because it is the og with oud. After two weeks of letting the perfume "rest" I picked it up and gave it another try. It's not that different imo, this is a bit softer which is odd with the oud. they are like sisters that look alike (duh it's a flanker). This is the younger sister, the OG is the middle and the Le Parfum is the eldest and mature sister.
