Vanille Bourbon 2000

I think it is the best budget friendly vanilla scent ever. It is not expensive, yes; but it smells not cheap at all. It sits so well on skin and smells of pure vanilla. I bought it for the first time before a trip to Paris and now when I smell it it reminds me of the delicious, warm parisian bakery smell on a chilly autumn day. I love this fragrance very much I can not remember how many bottles of it I used (ok mum also helped to consume :) ) . Dont compare it to the TBS Vanilla scent because they are not at the same league at all. TBS Vanilla smells waaaay synthetic and cheap. But you won't regret buying this one. I always draw compliments when I use it. +the lasting power is amazing.

One of my favorites. another rich deep vanilla scent from Yves Rocher. I always come back to this edt when I fancy a vanilla scent. Very long lasting

This is a GORGEOUS gourmand!! Very powerful fragrance, long staying power and sooo cosy! Highly recommended!!!

This is for the old version, in a dark green box. I find this to be a pleasant fragrance that does what it says on the tin, i.e. smells of vanilla. It's rather linear and doesn't develop much - what you get at the start is how it stays. It's not exactly natural-smelling, but certainly not synthetic either. It smells like an idea of vanilla rather than the real thing. Tremendous longevity and I can understand why it might trigger headaches for some people. I tend to enjoy it for a while and then get tired of smelling it I just looked up "bourbon vanilla" and apparently it's the name for all the vanilla grown on Madagascar and other islands in the Indian Ocean. It has nothing to do with alcohol. So I learned something new today :)

I kind of like it... when I don't spray it directly on me. I just spray a few times in the air and walk in the cloud of vanilla! And even then people can notice this scent on me. It's sweet, very sweet! A warm vanilla scent that hugs you! And every time you return to the room where you sprayed it... Mmmm vanillaaaaa!!! It stays on and it doesn't cost much! Just don't spray too much or it gets too cloyingly for others and...even yourself! Don't try this if you don't like gourmand perfumes, this one is a heavy gourmand....
