Almost lost the will to live in completing my reviews of this collection because the Vanilla ones just aren't that good. Vanori opens nice enough with a fresh, sharp and bitter grapefruit. There's an aroma chemical in here that I'm familiar with but can't place at the moment, in a woody context here it feels masculine, doesn't save this scent though. It feels misjudged in my humble opinion (which I'm sure people will disagree with) certainly after the initial freshness is gone. It can't tell whether it wants to go in a woody, aromatic direction or languish in a cloying, balmy vanilla hell? When settles there's a cozy woody smell in the base, familiar and slightly balsamic, rubbery nearly but despite that cozy warmth...it's not appealing. A couple of the Musc ones glimpse the spirit of vanilla heavy Guerlain offerings and I noticed someone comparing this to Angelique Noire below, sorry Angelique Noire this is not. Shame.
