Not a pleasant scent
A friend had this in her Advent calendar and found it so great that I thought - I have to test it!
Actually, no vanilla detectable. In the opening, it is very floral with a fresh plum note. When the plums are not quite ripe yet and you pick one and break it open to remove the pit, that scent comes through in the opening alongside the floral notes.
Additionally, there is an alcoholic scent that doesn't go in any specific direction. A bit like a glasses cleaning cloth, I would say, light but noticeable.
After about 4 hours, the sweetness comes, from vanilla? I don't know. When you walk past Primark, a sweet plastic scent wafts out of the store, just like back in the day with cheap Barbies, and that's exactly how it smells now.
Fortunately, it has no sillage, so you can only smell it when you hold your nose close. It's really quite terrible. Longevity more than 7 hours.

Wonderful Vanilla Dream
I wonder why this wonderful scent receives relatively little attention here, as it is for me one of the most successful vanilla fragrances that has no prominent counterpart in its composition.

At the start, the bergamot flashes briefly and then a warm and dark vanilla note joins in. A little sip of plum liqueur makes it a bit calmer. Like a delicate veil of smoke, it envelops the fragrance, and I perceive it for quite a while. After some time, the scent becomes sweeter, more intense, and heavier. The sweetness takes on a wonderful aroma, as if a splash of rum has been added. Amber is noticeable but stays beautifully in the background. The sweetness is never overpowering or syrupy, but is perfectly balanced by the woody notes. And so it remains perceptible to me for a very long time.

I find this one of the most beautiful vanilla fragrances I have had the pleasure of experiencing so far. I perceive it only slightly gourmand - which is good for me. Likewise, the plum is not dominant; I’m not very fond of fruits either.

For the cold season, it is a perfect scent, as long as you like sweet (not sticky) vanilla fragrances. When dosed discreetly, it is also suitable for everyday wear. Unfortunately, it is currently no longer offered on the Estée Lauder homepage - hopefully, this is not a sign that it has been discontinued!

By the way, the name fits perfectly. The golden vanilla is truly a winter dream! Now we just need the cold and the snow...

The Paradise of the Elegant
A wonderful, warm, inviting scent that enchants without being overpowering. Imagine a mysterious middle-aged lady gracefully examining the spices brought to her villa. With a playful smile, she looks up at you and formally invites you to kiss her shoulder. She lovingly brushes her nose against yours before gently but firmly pressing her lips to the corner of your mouth. She is warm, but not too sweet. She is mysterious, but not too dark. Her skin smells of vanilla and something darker that cannot quite be placed, enticing exploration. The Paradise of the Elegant.

Vanilla Tree for the Skin
I have always loved vanilla very much. Be it in food or in body fragrance. There are so many different types of vanilla, from cardboard sweet, kitschy to the more bitter. The palette is vast, and many vanilla scents are similar in one way or another. But I am still on the hunt for the perfect vanilla fragrance, which I may have found here.

After the first spray, it becomes clear that this is not a kitschy vanilla scent! This one is very mature and very elegant. In some comments, rum was mentioned. I didn't notice it at first, but after wearing it multiple times, this note has also come to my attention, kept quite in the background but still present. This could also come from the plum, which is usually a bit alcoholic. Additionally, there are the finest, peppery spices, a few rose petals, and most importantly, the wood. The fragrance has plenty of that, and it fits together so wonderfully that a scent is created that is so sexy and irresistible! The scent also reminds me a bit of a liqueur in the color gold/yellow, matching the bottle.

Here, a fragrance has been created that evokes some childhood memories through the vanilla and awakens the noble and sexy lady within through the finely spiced wood. This scent is incredibly well done; every time it wafts into my nose, I can't help but smile and think, what a vanilla tree, which of course has absolutely nothing in common with the vanilla tree for cars, but the vanilla and wood have never harmonized better for me than here! Simply irresistible.

So, anyone who enjoys vanilla scents, along with something slightly alcoholic and spiced wood, should definitely give this a try. Especially now for the cold season, it is an absolute dream! Great longevity and sillage, just as it should be in winter!

Similar to Black Opium Le Parfum, maybe a tad sweeter. Rich, mature, cozy vanilla.

Vanilla bomb like in the '90s. Le Bain shines through, but the scent has more depth and feels more mature. Not for me, but I like it.

Vanilla-amber-labdanum with subtle oud and light bergamot in the top note. Not bad, but smells way too similar to many others.

Heavy syrupy amber in the opening, then the smoky, dry, leathery vanilla comes in. More suited for the cool evening season.

"Alexa, invite George Clooney to dinner." Unfortunately, that didn't work :-( As a consolation, this lovely vanilla sweetened my evening :-)

A velvety-spicy, warm vanilla scent. Oriental, slightly smoky, sensual... Am I also smelling rum? Love at first sniff!

Dark, warm + spicy vanilla with a hint of rum. Nestled on amber wood. Similar to SDV. Oriental, creamy, balsamic, cozy.

Dark spicy vanilla scent with fruity-woody sprinkles & a splash of rum. Reminds me of Spiritueuse Double Vanille. Orientale de Luxe.
