REVIEWS

Fragrantica - "Caramel lovers rejoice! I get all buttery caramel with just a hint of sweetness."

Fragrantica - "This is beautiful. I get a warm, sweet and creamy, buttery vanilla. The caramel intertwines with the vanilla so well. I get a burnt sugar smell that is mouthwatering. So yummy! Once it's drying down I only get the tiniest hint of fruitiness that's way in the background giving it some depth. But make no mistake, this is a gourmand vanilla and caramel fragrance. It's a love for me."

Fragrantica - "It's a sweet, caramel gourmand, even though generally I'm not a fan of caramel at all. It's got a burnt sugar smell to me that's addicting. My most recent purchase was Escapade Gourmande, and I'm wondering if I should have waited and bought this instead....I'm not getting any florals, citrus or fruits though, and that is fine with me!"

Fragrantica - "Vani Charnel is buttery caramel cookie goodness! I wore her last night after my shower and she was still there when I woke up this morning! Such a comforting scent bubble of deliciousness and I keep wanting more! Vani Charnel reminds me of Jousset Accident a la Vanille. Very caramel-y and heavier on the first spray but lightens up a little as I wear it....If you are a gourmand lover this is a must have! Absolutely yummy!"

Fragrantica - "There haven't been too many fragrances that have wowed me lately, but this one is absolutely gorgeous. It is the most smooth, buttery caramel that I have ever come across. If you are a big fan of vanilla & caramel (Vaniglia, Vanille West Indies, Lira), you will love this one."

Fragrantica - "This is delicious. Hands down, this is a dessert. And the notes are really very deceiving. There is something very lactonic about this perfume, although no milk notes appear in the pyramid. It reminds me right off the bat of Biancolatte... although unfortunately, while quite beautiful, Biancolatte doesn't last on me. Then the drydown is very much like hot fudge sundae. This scent is rich and thick and sumptuous."

Maisondeparfum -  "A wonderful vanilla: fruity, with a caramel accord in the bottom. Soft and enveloping. I recommend it." 

Maisondeparfum - "It is addictive .... taken with your eyes closed."

Fragrantica - "In the opening I get spun sugar and a tiny bit of vanilla-strawberry hard candy; the lemon note in the opening is fleeting. Then it settles into a beautiful vanilla with not much evolution after that. This is from top to bottom, a sweet creamy caramel vanilla fragrance along the lines of Mazzolari Vaniglia but with very slightly less caramel and more fruitiness- but not fresh fruits, hard candy-like fruitiness. I don't get any florals. This is not a heavy vanilla by any means, the words 'fluffy' and 'airy' come to mind. It's beautiful, feminine-leaning but a man can pull this off if he is not restricted by boundaries of what is considered feminine or masculine. Overall a beautiful fragrance, definitely worth checking out."

EDIT: Y'all are going to think I'm crazy but I'm getting elements of Glaze Ecstacy. Like the sweet fluffiness in the dry down of Glaze Ecstacy.  EDIT 2: Deep dry down, I'm getting strawberry vanilla ice cream.
