    Im surprised that this is not rated much higher. It smells like a very aged vanilla extract and I mean that in a wonderful and magical way. Its not a boring vanilla. Its not a cupcake but something...

    The bottle is so big, I don't think I will ever finish using it. I do like how it is not sweet and after 8 hours, I can still smell it on my skin. I used to use Comptoir Sud Pacifique, which was...

    I'm still conflicted about this scent: love it, but it's just not something that works well with my chemistry apparently. Beautiful, rich, smoky and spicy, but after a couple of hours I get tiny...

    This fragrance is feminine. It's straight-up vanilla, the way vanilla REALLY smells. It's got a hint of spice in it as well, so it's not EXACTLY like cooking vanilla. The fragrance is very...

    A smokey, woody, dry vanilla, not sweet in any way. The adult version of vanilla that does not smell cheap nor overtly foody. A nice surprise for this vanilla non-lover.

    SMN Vaniglia is not at all a straight sweet cookie and cake vanilla. It's not a vanilla that is necessarily about the comfort of being in a kitchen and baking cookies with the kids. It's a...

    I like this vanilla because it doesn't have that buttery/foody element that many vanillas have. It is a subtle ,very low key, but interesting vanilla that is smokey rather than cloyingly sweet. The...

    It smelled very bad on my skin, nice on the shirt but bad on my skin (I don't get it) :P This is a nice complex vanilla, not for sweet vanilla lovers, this is different! it's spicy and woodsy and...

    I don't hate it. Let that be clear at the outset. However, I do resent it. When something bills itself as vanilla, and comes from a company that specializes in single note fragrances, when I...

    This smells EXACTLY like Coty's Vanilla Fields to me. Not really bad per se, just cheap.

    I can't even smell vanilla in this. To me it smells extremely similar to Clinique Wrappings. Has that certain sharp pungent woody scent. Just not at all what I expected from something that has...

    Definitely not a sweet vanilla, as others have said. Initially, it smelled fake and almost like glue. Then, there was some woodsy smokiness that was pretty interesting, and then it was un-sweet...

    Reminds me somewhat of Serge Lutens Un Bois Vanille with a little less wood and more smoke. Nice rich vanilla core. Received a sample from Luscious and thinking about a full bottle.

    I love vanilla, but I seem to have gotten tired of the super sweet straight foody vanillas out there. I like my vanilla with a twist, something spicy or smokey or mixed with almond or musk or other...

    The best vanilla out there! Its vanilla - yet it's not vanilla. Smokey, musky, non-foody. A very wonderful fragrance!

    I *think* that SMN Vaniglia has patchouli. Or is it geranium? (Very different, I know, but both notes have similar effects on me.) On first application, Vaniglia smells like nail polish remover to...

    The first sniff of this vanilla is quite strong - it reminds me of a sweet liquor. It's definitely not foody, but it's also not that smokey (like L'Artisan's). It has good lasting power and the...

    The more I try this, the more I like it. It's rich, deep, elegant, not at all like a marshmallow. Not cloying, and not like suntan lotion, either - very different from CSP. It takes a few minutes...
