Love the Vanilla video! I had a rough day at work (I’m a nurse on a Covid unit) but it made my day to see you’re back. Glad you took the time you needed for yourself.
Tracy, I am sending warm thoughts your way. I was a patient on a COVID unit this January/February (Cleveland Clinic). I was fully vaccinated but still got sick and it gave me Myocarditis. It was nurses like you who helped to keep me alive, and after I was out of the woods, they did everything they could to help me feel better. I am SO thankful for you and for everyone who does your job❤️ Doctors are awesome but it’s nurses who made the biggest impact on my quality of life while I was in the hospital. You will always be my hero 🙏
Welcome back! Your intro was adorable! 😊 And I am a fan of the use of "y'all." What a list! Please include fragrances that are no longer available - the second-hand market allows us to hunt down those treasures.
As you were speaking, I ran to compare scents, I just got a decant of Lune Feline and I have a sample of vanilla flash, those really smells good. 👍🏾. Nice review Tara. 💃
I’m glad you mention Aerin. Not mentioned much in the frag community and it is a great house! I recommend Tangiers Vanille. Underrated and it is such a nice, pretty office friendly vanilla. To beef it up, I layer with Lune Feline💐💖🤗
Welcome back! Love vanilla fragrances and would also recommend Vanilla Diorama. Similar to Feve but the dry down is all about the vanilla. Thanks for sharing your faves!
I'm going to have to try double vanille, I've been wanting a good vanilla fragrance and that sounds incredible! Great video and I'm so happy you're back and doing well 💗
Wow, what a pleasant surprise🤩🤩. I’ve taken a screenshot of this list, vanilla fragrances are my favourite😍😍. I absolutely love La Belle Le Parfum, Dama Bianca and Lune Feline, I need a FB of the latter😍😍. This was a great welcome back video👌👌. Stay gorgeous🥰🥰.
So great to see you filming again! You know vanilla is my top scent “player” yay! Some absolutely amazing vanilla fragrance you chose! Thank you for sharing with us!❤️😊🇨🇦~Kim
My absolute favorite vanillas are Nuit et Confidences, Spirituese Double Vanille, Cuir de Nuit- Yves Rocher, Kayali Vanilla 28, Vaniglia Mazzolari, Fire at Will - Javoy Paris, and Contre Moi Louis Vuitton. Im sure there are more that I'm forgetting, i LOVE LOVE Vanilla fragrances!
Ooh did you ever get a chance to smell Yves Rocher Vanille Noire? Discontinued around 2016/17, but amazing predecessor to Cuir de Nuit. Boozier and less powdery.
So happy to see you on my screen again and you kicked it off with a bang…….Favorite Vanillas. Vanilla forward fragrances are definitely top of my list.
Oh, hooray! You are back! I was very concerned and hoping that you were doing ok. Love the great lineup of vanillas! I appreciate all your wonderful descriptions, as always! Welcome back!❤️🌹
Great list! Out of these 20, I've smelled 12. Un Bois Vanille, Notorieta, and OK Fine Fragrances vanillas are so good. I have several samples of their vanilla bourbon in oak, but a full bottle of their vanilla rum. Yum.
I stumbled onto your channel today and really enjoyed your video! I have a couple you mentioned and need to get my nose on that guerlain as well as the black bottle that you mentioned being the best performer... I wouldn't typically recommend something impossible to find but since you already went there (lol) I HAVE to say that L'Artisan Parfumeur Vanilia (not the Vanille Equisse) from their ORIGINAL line up is one of THE best vanilla fragrances I've ever tried... You can still find them floating around online from time to time, and I do think it would be an OK blind buy for you... It's SLIGHTLY boozy with a WISP of ylang and a TOUCH of clove but it is REAL vanilla and it's beautiful... I think some sandalwood drydown... Give it a try!
Love Nuit et Confidences & Étoile d'Une Nuit from Goutal! Recently picked up Angelique noir, hoping to find a deal on SDV! I have so many niche perfume and vanilla lace from Victoria’s Secret is still my favorite. I really wish they would bring it back.☹️
Hi Tara! It’s so good to see you again! Welcome back and what an awesome video on vanilla fragrances!! I am absolutely obsessed with vanilla fragrances so much so that I have several fragrances that smell kind of the same such as: Fire At Will by Jovoy Vaniglia by Mazzolari Sucre Noir by Arte Profumi Vanille West Indies by St Barth Fragrances Vanille Outremer And my favorite, Tihota by Indult… I also looooove Spiritueuse Double Vanille, Vanilla 28, By the Fireplace, Vanilla Diorama, Gentle Fluidity and Orchidée Vanille. I love your selections and I am looking to acquire Vanilla Silk by Gallagher Fragrance. I am sure it smells divine! Thank you again for a great video and welcome back!!✨✨✨
I love a long list with so many options, especially a few I've never heard of! Thank you for representing different types of vanillas here. The hunt for the "perfect" vanilla is an endless adventure that I've been on for many years. I had a sample of Vaniglia del Madagascar by Farmacia SS. Annunziata for a long time (which Chris from The Perfume Nest recommended), and only recently tried it out. It's the closest I've ever found to a realistic, delicate, straight forward vanilla, and it smells so refined to me. Delicious and gourmand adjacent, but without being one-dimensional, overly sweet, or plasticky. That same day, when I searched the internet for any website that carried it, I found out it had already been discontinued 🤦♀️😭. Supposedly their replacement vanilla smells similar, but I'm still hoarding my old sample.
Yay!! Now you’re truly back. How wonderful! There was definitely a couple fragrances here that I have never heard of and now I’m on a wild goose chase… what better activity for a fragrance nut?!?! Wonderful video and so good to see you. ✌🏽🕺🏼♥️
Good to see you back! One of my favorite scents is Elizabeth & James Nirvana Bourbon and I am so sad it’s discontinued. If you know of anything similar, I would love a recommendation!!! Thank you 🙏
I did enjoy the video Tara, thanks! I've been trying to decide what vanilla to buy for like months actually lol. El Born is def one im considering. Id love to get one of those 75ml Guerlains a few dif fragrances too SdV included but they're so damn expensive now. I screwed up around Christmas when Tonka Imperiale showed up on fragrancenet for like $170 and I didn't get it, still upset about it lol. Great to see u and thanks again.
fun video. I liked the red thread u picked out for the new bottle of SDV. I have the old bottle of SDV but it might be too woody for my taste. I have been wearing the VCA and Cinema EDP by YSL more.
Have you tried Mercedes Benz club black..its probably overlooked by females due to it being a car company fragrance but its a wolf in sheeps clothing..I would love to know what you think because its a gourmand straight vanilla thats definitely unisex. I just bought DUAs vaniglia dream which is a blend of Mazzolari Vaniglia and Tihota and its so intoxicating..i layer it with side effect and its the best thing ive ever smelled😊I think you should definitely try MB and Either Mazzolari Vaniglia or DUAs version ..its got 3 notes vanilla, caramel,and orchid.
I love SDV on other people but it is so fleeting on me, the vanille only lasts a few minutes and then it's gone. Thankfully their L'Initial works pretty well on me. Organza Indecence radiates some vanilla with cinnamon but it's tough to get anymore. Thank you for this list, it gives me more to explore!
I just stumbled across your channel for the first time and would love to try some of these! …But on a side note- you look just like the actress Linda Cardellini! Wondering if you’ve heard that before?
You are an asset to fragcomm madam, where were you, gorgeous?! You are so knowledgeable, eloquent and beautiful person. (By the way you sometimes remind me of Katie Purcrik - in a positive way, of course!). Please upload more videos. Thank you for the videos.
A couple of my favorites that aren’t on your list are Initio Absolute Aphrodisiac, Guerlain Angelique Noire, and Givenchy Organza Indecence (which I almost forgot to mention until I saw someone else bring it up in the comments. It’s unreal, but becoming difficult to find). I am sure you’re probably familiar with the Angelique Noire and Organza Indecence. If you haven’t smelled the Initio yet, you should try to get your nose on it because I think you might like it.
Serge Lutens un bois vanille is one of my favorites, as well as kayali vanilla 28 and Tom ford vanille fatale. Have you tried Perris Monte Carlo Vanille de Tahiti? It’s my current fave right now. Just got a full bottle and I am so in love 😍
Gonna add Ok Fine fragrances VRO - vanilla rum in oak Becuse it’s such an amazing summery rum vanilla. Have to get my nose on VBO, though. Also PAO, the patchouli in absinthe is a stunning vanilla patchouli that I just love on cold winter days 🥰
I love lists like this because it's always so entertaining how different our interpretations can be! For example, when you mentioned Vanille Fatale but that Tobacco Vanille is more tobacco to you. I remember smelling Vanille Fatale and mostly just getting floral notes. Eventually the vanilla warmed up along with other notes to make it more interesting, but it still never struck me as a vanilla-centric fragrance, while TV feels balanced between its namesake notes. I also never got vanilla from Gentle fluidity (gold), but definitely could see the comparison to intense cafe, I get a similar powdery rose vibe from them. And Un Bois Vanille reminds me of vanilla syrup + bubble bath-almost syrupy sweet and very cozy.
Love the Vanilla video! I had a rough day at work (I’m a nurse on a Covid unit) but it made my day to see you’re back. Glad you took the time you needed for yourself.

@@Scents4em Your incredibly kind words are so greatly appreciated. ❤️
Thanks, Tracy! And thank you for all you do! You have a very challenging job but I appreciate everything you do for others!
Hope you’re doing well Tara, if you love vanilla try Fire at Will by Jovoy……..stunner !
Seconding this, Fire At Will is amazing. I just wish for Jovoy to restock!
I have remember Me already. How different is it from fire at will?
Vanilla Flash is glorious to me!! It smells like a powdery boudoir vanilla. The rose and tobacco are stunning together. I'll have that scent for life.
Magnificent 20 ! Charmingly described with a lot of important info unobtrusively exposed ! Thoroughly enjoyable video !
Welcome back! Your intro was adorable! 😊 And I am a fan of the use of "y'all." What a list! Please include fragrances that are no longer available - the second-hand market allows us to hunt down those treasures.
Thanks, Veronica! It's good to be back!
Back and with my favorite color on!!! Marigold
Thank you! I love that color as well!
It’s can’t get more exciting than a top 20 VANILLA fragrances video ,I was quite addicted to vanilla over the winter
As you were speaking, I ran to compare scents, I just got a decant of Lune Feline and I have a sample of vanilla flash, those really smells good. 👍🏾. Nice review Tara. 💃
Spiritueuse Double Vanille is definitely my favorite of all time!
So happy to see you're back! Was really missing your content! 💜
Thank you so much, Dean!
Double Vanille is at the top of my wish list and has been for the last year. Your video has pushed me to purchase it!!
I’m glad you mention Aerin. Not mentioned much in the frag community and it is a great house! I recommend Tangiers Vanille. Underrated and it is such a nice, pretty office friendly vanilla. To beef it up, I layer with Lune Feline💐💖🤗
I will need to try that combo! Sounds great!!!
Welcome back Tara!😀
My all time favourite vanilla fragrance is Vanille Fatale by TF.
Thank you!
Vanillaaaaaaaaa .......! Yes !!!!!!
Am watching 😊🙂 + loving the background ❤️
Thank you so much!
Tara!! So glad you're back!!
Loved your list (i'm obsessed with vanilla)
P.S I wore that Goutal to bed last night! it's really comforting!
Thanks, Yara! Yes, that is a good bedtime scent for sure!

Oh Shalimat Millisime! That is one I want to get my hands on 😍
It's lovely!
I loved this video, thank you! I can highly recommend Vanilj by Maya Njie (which I'm wearing as I type!) and Vanilicious by April Aromatics.
I think my friend is sending me that one from April Aromatics to try! Maya Njie makes awesome fragrances!
Super Happy You are Back🥰🥰🥰

Thank you, Kyla!
Cannot wait for my Un Bois Vanille to darken overtime like yours 😍
I don't even remember what it looked like when I first got it. Lol!
I also fell for the limited edition WW1984, and Im glad I did, it is a beautiful vanilla, probably my favorite vanilla in my collection. 😘
Yes, it is a great fragrance!
Tara, it is so nice to see you!!! It is just not the same around here without you and this is one awesome list of vanillas!!! ❤️🌺❤️
Great list! Out of these 20, I've smelled 12. Un Bois Vanille, Notorieta, and OK Fine Fragrances vanillas are so good. I have several samples of their vanilla bourbon in oak, but a full bottle of their vanilla rum. Yum.
The vanilla rum one is really good, too! Thank you!

Yes! It is lovely!

El Born is really nice! I've sampled that before. I also missed Tonka Imperial when it was on the discounter sites. Such a bummer!
fun video. I liked the red thread u picked out for the new bottle of SDV.
I have the old bottle of SDV but it might be too woody for my taste. I have been wearing the VCA and Cinema EDP by YSL more.
Thrilled you are back and congrats on 8k!
Please come back! We miss you :(

You have some fabulous vanilla fragrances in this video!
I love SDV on other people but it is so fleeting on me, the vanille only lasts a few minutes and then it's gone. Thankfully their L'Initial works pretty well on me. Organza Indecence radiates some vanilla with cinnamon but it's tough to get anymore. Thank you for this list, it gives me more to explore!
I'm obsessed with organza Indecence! It's really sad that I can't find it anywhere
Love you already !!! ❣️
I just stumbled across your channel for the first time and would love to try some of these!
…But on a side note- you look just like the actress Linda Cardellini! Wondering if you’ve heard that before?
Thanks so much! I've never heard of that actress, but I'll look her up!
Awesome video, here for vanilla! And you, welcome back!
Yes. SDV.
So happy to see you back!
I could NVER have too many vanillas so let's goooo!!!! lol
Lol! Agreed!!!
Love seeing you back!
Great variety, Tara! I really want to smell those Aerin gold bottle frags!
Try Tihota. It is my new love!
That's a good one! I've tried it once before.
Hi Tara.....great reviews! So good to have you back. Hopefully soon will purchase Dama Bianca.
Welcome back, Tara! Great list 🥰
Thanks, Heather!
@@Olfactofiles I’m ready for your next decant post because there are some I need to try 😉
@@heather_hester Thanks, Heather! Probably will be in the early summer unless I have some unexpected free time.
Great to have you back, Tara 💗💗💗

Vanilla Orchid by Precious liquid is a must-try 👌
So glad you are back

Hey Tara, let's see what's on the list.
Welcome back 🙂
Welcome back! Great video. Vanilla is one of the perfume notes that I like.
So happy you're back!!
. Sometimes we all need a minute welcome back
Thanks, Phil!
Oh yeah and loved the intro. And vanilla is hands-down the most enveloping. And beautiful scent profile. Just add a little booze
I love lists like this because it's always so entertaining how different our interpretations can be! For example, when you mentioned Vanille Fatale but that Tobacco Vanille is more tobacco to you. I remember smelling Vanille Fatale and mostly just getting floral notes. Eventually the vanilla warmed up along with other notes to make it more interesting, but it still never struck me as a vanilla-centric fragrance, while TV feels balanced between its namesake notes. I also never got vanilla from Gentle fluidity (gold), but definitely could see the comparison to intense cafe, I get a similar powdery rose vibe from them. And Un Bois Vanille reminds me of vanilla syrup + bubble bath-almost syrupy sweet and very cozy.
