Miel & Vanille (Honey & Vanilla)

It's sweet enough, not too much not too little. Can be worn by men and it smells better than Dior Homme Intense, IMO. Edit: Now that I own it, I can write a propper review. This is just astonishing, starts out a bit on the citus side, but the lemon note evaporates after 20 minutes. Then you're left with a perfect blend of warm and powdery vanilla, honey and caramel. Longevity is very good and good sillage. This is just amazing, I'm a man and it's completely safe for a man to wear it and if you think Dior Homme Intense smells like lipstick, but still wants a nice vanilla scent, this one is for you.

Sweet delicate vanilla and warm honey: the perfect combination of my favorite notes! I used to wear Eau de Vanillieurs and L'Occitane Ambre, both unfortunately discontinued. It is really good to smell vanilla and honey from Provence (and to my surprise some amber too, not listed in the notes).Please L'Occitane, keep this one for a looong time. UPDATE: 2016 - once again L'Occitane discontinued such a good fragrance, sad.

Wow, I was so curious about this scent, and finally nabbed a mostly full bottle off eBay. And holy cow, do I love it. This is so warm and a bit boozey and a pleasant, non-sickening sweet. I definitely get honey, but it's a sort of smooth, tempered honey, not sharp raw honey. Sillage seems decent but not overbearing, and it lasts about 4-5 hours on me with any real presence. This is beautiful.

1st lemon notes are stimulating, then the sweet honey is wrapping me. Caramel is intensive too. I love this fragrance which is a blind purchase : what a pleasant surprise.

I love it! and it is nearly gone, so wish that I could find more.

Yum yum yum!!!! This is delicious!!!! I love it!!!!

This is in one word: sweet. The fragrance opens with hint of citrus, but that note is quickly devoured by the scent of caramel and vanilla. I can smell a hint of patchouli breaking trough now and then, but that too is quickly overwhelmed by the caramel. Despite the name of the frangrance, I don't smell a lot of honey, perhaps it blends so well with the caramel and vanilla that I don't notice. This perfume reminds me of baking. When I wear this I smell like I've spend the day in the kitchen making deserts, which I love. The fragrance is so comforting, it's really delicious, but because of the sweetness it easily becomes to heavy. It lasts really long on my skin and changes little, except for the loss of the citrus and the patchouli, but they weren't very distinctive anyway. I love this perfume and I own a bottle of it. But somehow I can't make myself wear it very often. It's too heavy, too sweet. Still, I don't regret purchasing the bottle. I love to wear it while I'm studying for my exams. I don't have to worry about it being too overpowering for anyone but myself then and it just feels so nice and comforting, like a favourite sweater you love, but can't really wear outside your house.

Wow! I got myself a brand new bottle of this a year or so ago on eBay, and there are currently none available there! I've had it sitting in my closet since then, being put off by how it smelled in the bottle. I got it out today and sprayed some on. Top notes: A lot of lemon, something which smells like eucalyptus to my nose, and a hint of mint and something sweet (caramel and/or honey maybe?). Mainly lemon though- I'm surprised that others don't think this is a very prominent note! Drydown: Stays very close to the skin- I won't be too surprised if it disappears soon. And yes, the delicious foody notes do stand out more, but I'm still smelling the lemon and eucalyptus...I wish they would go away! Not sure if this is a 'like' or 'love' yet...I do know it's definitely not a 'dislike'! Will update! Update: The lemon note remained throughout on me- which annoyed me a little! It certainly wasn't totally unpleasant, but I can't see myself wearing this much in future. It did have good lasting power though- I went to sleep with this on my wrist and could still smell it the next morning when I woke up.

I purchased this scent unsniffed and adored it at first whiff (guess it helped that I'm a fan of both vanilla and L'Occitane). Ths starts off as a subtle, sweet citrus quickly followed by a waft of smooth, sticky honey and finally settling to a beautiful, caressing, warm vanilla. I not sure I could identify the cinnamon note but maybe this is hovering in the background gently tempering the sweetness (along with the citrus) of the honey and vanilla. The sillage is good and I can smell this on my wrist long after spraying. I can't imagine anybody being offended by this scent and hence it is suitable for any occasion.

Bought this off Ebay for a bargain and I'm quite impressed. It's refreshing & sparkling with heaps of fresh lemon. This actually captures the zest and sourness of the lemon really well, and is balanced beautifully by the sweetness of the vanilla and honey. The main notes are the lemon, vanilla, honey and patchouli. I don't actually notice the caramel or the cinnamon. A good one!

It can be a bit stuffy but even at that stage earned me conpliments. Very very sweet, I mostly wear it around Christmas.

was my favourite once. i hate that it doesn't lingers long :/

Miel & Vanille is very cozy. It would be nice if they still made this, I have about an inch left. Beautiful bottle. I like the way the honey comb feels on my finger tips. I don't get the spiciness of cinnamon so much as the warmth. With my nose to the sprayer I actually get a faint soft musk that fades. Hours later my skin seems to hold onto the patchouli and vanilla the most. I usually wear it with my golden amber oil. At least 4 people have thought I was wearing Angel. Either while in the car or walking past them. I guess that's the patchouli talking.

Very sweet, but still not sugary. It is not often that I am in the mood for an unapologetically sweet fragrance , but when I am, this is my kind of sweet fragrance: warm, spicy and slightly boozy. Sweet like honey cookies in winter (instead of candyfloss sweet, which I tend to hate).

On me smells very similar to L Lolita Lempicka, but instead of cinammon and spices like L, the drydown is more honey and amber, it ́s a very warm vanilla, great for winter, stays close to skin, staying power about 3 hrs.

Rich creamy Vanilla & Caramel, with a nice touch of honey . Some how still it is not overly sweet .A comforting and warm scent.Great on a cold or rainy day :)

Smells the same as L by Lolita Lempicka. I have to be in the mood for this. It's not that strong as L so it's more wearable.

Does anyone know how to purchase a sample of this? Amazon has it for $249?!?!

Smells very similar to L (Lolita Lempicka)
