Powerful and compliment-worthy

Half of people don't understand the potential of this perfume.
And I'll explain, look at the perfume's score (currently) 7.2, not exciting.

But that's only because some people don't understand this amazing perfume.

Yes, it's a little synthetic, so what?!
The vanilla, coconut and pall santo are woven into an amazing sweet and creamy aroma that everyone around you will smell you all day long.

One day I was at work and a customer came into my store, I immediately recognized the scent, 10 minutes after she left her scent was still in the store and it amazed me.

I definitely plan on buying this perfume soon.

9/10.

Scrumptious vanilla, coconut shavings, a hint of woodiness and white musk

I held off on trying it for a long time because I saw other people's review about it which made me pause. Thankfully, there's absolutely no synthetic smell to my nose unless you count the sharp beginning. Instead, I'm met with a scrumptious bourbon vanilla mixed in equal parts with a creamy coconut. It's decadent, gourmand, but not heavy! Made me think of either a coconut and vanilla (pastry?) dessert or a luxurious coconut and vanilla butter cream. There's a hint of woodiness coming from the palo santo at the edge of the scent that stops it from becoming too sweet or cloying. It could probably be worn during spring or summer (no heatwave temperatures) for that reason.

Like others have said, I do admit it's pretty linear. There's less complexity and depth than other vanilla-centric fragrances out there, but the performance of this fragrance is absolutely amazing and makes up for the rest of it. If you're in search for a vanilla and coconut scent, this one is it!

I wanted to love you vanilla powder

I truly wanted to love Vanilla Powder. With all the hype around it being a "perfect creamy vanilla," I was expecting something soft, comforting, and deliciously gourmand. Instead, what I got was... well, not very vanilla at all.

To my nose, this leans heavily masculine, more like a lightly sweetened cologne than a vanilla fragrance. The opening is powdery and clean, with a woody or musky undertone that dominates everything else. The vanilla? It’s barely there. I really had to focus to pick it out, and even then, it felt more like a background suggestion than the star of the show.

What makes this even more frustrating is the projection. The scent feels intense up close, there's a richness to it, but the sillage is surprisingly weak. It stays close to the skin and fades faster than I expected, which makes the lack of vanilla even more noticeable.

If you're looking for a strong, creamy, gourmand vanilla, this isn’t it. For me, it was more of a masculine-leaning skin scent with the tiniest hint of vanilla buried underneath. Hugely disappointing.

Vanilla - coconut beast

Even if it is a bit on the "pricey side", this fragrance is a beast. So if it's up to me - definitely worth the price.

Not a typical "woman's vanilla", not by a long shot. It's very masculine, dry and salty. In the opening to my nose a bit peppery, palo santo/inscence note comes through immediately. There's not much fuzziness or sweetness in here, just dry, salty coconut shavings and a high quality, masculine vanilla.

In that sense, really different, not so warm, simplistic and predictable. Longevity easily up to 12+ hours, sillage also great.

High quality very interesting scent that left me confused

I am a huge fan of the Matiere Premiere range, went in to test this one out at my favourite niche fragrance boutique as soon as this arrived.

Upon first spray I immediately recognized the same note that stood out to me in Bois D'Ebene - it is the Palo Santo. To some people it smells screechy and maybe synthetic, to me, I don't mind, I loved Bois D'Ebene.

The thing is I felt that the combination of this specific kind of palo Santo note and vanilla/coconut really confused me...it is not a scent you could put in one category or another.

My favourite part about it is the dry down. By dry down I mean, how my wrist smelt the second day...it is THAT long lasting. Monster projection as well - it was the first thing my friends noticed that day because I went to dinner with them after my visit to the store...

I can't decide for now whether it's a love or not, I am going to go through my sample and see. The quality is there for sure.
