An abomination on gourmands as a whole

This is an insult on bakery and bakers all around the world. A vanilla cake? Sure, maybe a box mix cake made with expired milk, fertilized eggs, and an oven with faulty wiring. And after the biohazard comes out of the "oven", it's then left to sit out in the sun for days, weeks, maybe even months. This is my first ever review. I created this account to warn people about this odorant. DO NOT BLIND BUY AT ALL COSTS. If you ever think about smelling this in a store, be weary and stay safe.

Delicious saddler

In the dark season of the year I often crave sweets - no wonder, because the dopamine mirror wants to be lifted.

But sweet treats stick to the teeth - and on the hips.

So my ma taught me to rather reach for a vanilla scent that, according to her experience, calms the "sweet tooth".

So Vanilla Cake came in handy
An oven-warm vanilla strudel, topped with almond seeds and poured over with caramel sauce appears like a hologram before my "jeepernden" eyes.
I would like to storm the cake counter near Kstadt, armed with a cake fork and a woozy view.

But - easy !
In between there is a car drive - and, even worse, the car key search.

But this delay proves to be a blessing - because Mama's prophecy comes true.
This sweet, soft cake aroma has successfully soothed my synapses - and it's calming down.
A desired placebo effect - so to speak.

I feel saturated - but not unpleasantly full of paper - and can enjoy the delicious - tasty scent.

Also the husband surrounds me friendly - and feels a " comfortable " atmosphere.

I can only agree with that.

A visit to the kitschy nursery of a girl playing with granny's ancient beauty products

The fragrance is many things, but for me not primarily vanillig.
That it would be synthetic, yes clear, no surprise, would have been well or interesting synthetic made, but the is already really rather strange.
At the beginning: for me caramel chocolate plus hair conditioner and vordergündig comes very penetrating a waxy note to the fore, (somehow also musty) which reminds me very much of an old jar lip balm, which stood around too long open.
Then vanilla strawberry scented candle.
A little dough.
The "My little Ponies" of my childhood; plastic and continuing to have that dull waxy note that I find really disgusting, but then it fades further and further into the background.
American ready-made muffins toasted come later.
Cold milk with sweetened cereals.
The wrist keeps coming towards the nose, just as convenience foods full of flavor enhancers can be addictive, wearing that one I guess I'd rather not, just as one can feel nauseated after a gluttony of bad, artificial foods.
Since there are much better vanilla gourmands that smell tastier and / or more stylish.

Eau de diabetis

Montale Vanilla Cake - a gourmet scent like in a book. A fragrance that already smells so sweet and strong on the sprayer that it almost knocks you out or makes you float on cloud nine. At the first sniff, it's clear what this is all about: nothing but juicy cake, the name says it all. Not every Montale is like that, sometimes the names are misleading.

I find it difficult to divide these nuances of fragrance into a pyramid, because so much simply comes together at once: Vanilla, sugar, cream, a little toasted almond, and in between strawberry and cherry (although not listed). It actually smells like a perfect strawberry tart made by grandma and prepared with love. Next to it a hot milk with honey and the cosy winter dessert is perfect. After a few minutes you are already full of the smell :-)

Vanilla Cake wraps the wearer in a strong silage for a long time, which has the potential to fill a whole room. Maybe this is the reason why you should be careful with the spraying. The scent hardly changes for hours and remains largely linear. The light fruity notes slowly disappear over time, leaving a sugary vanilla base. Somehow you can't keep your nose off, you prefer to bite your arm constantly.

Yes, Vanilla Cake is definitely more feminine but definitely conceivable as a unisex scent. Perfect for the winter, maybe for a date, Vanilla Cake is simply tempting to bite

Pure vanilla cake

Smells 1:1 like freshly baked vanilla cake to me, also in terms of sweetness. I can't believe it's possible, I was blown away the first time I smelled it, as was my boyfriend. My entry into the world of gourmands.
I couldn't make out any major fragrance progression, which I personally prefer.
Unbelievably a perfect fragrance if the goal is authentic gourmand, one of my favorites. Beautifully uncomplicated, creates expectations and fulfills them.
Unfortunately very expensive, I recently came across the blue malizia bon bon, which smells just as authentically of cake, only without the dominant vanilla and for €3.90
