So Vanilla

7.4

Private Mood

Citrus · Fruity · Sweet

Private Mood So Vanilla is a gourmand unisex scent that opens with bright citrus and settles into creamy, sweet vanilla. Its longevity and sillage are moderate: it neither whispers nor fills the room. Voters wear it most for leisure and daytime, then in the evening. Its sweetness reads as neither masculine nor feminine, and suits anyone. Orange and lemon blossom give a fresh opening. In the heart, gingerbread and neroli add spice and a light floral touch to the sweetness. Patchouli and vanilla form the base, leaving a powdery, creamy and softly sweet finish. Tipton Charles Orange Vanilla and Casamorati Lira (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.

Velvet Coco

6.7

Private Mood

Floral · Sweet · Gourmand

Private Mood Velvet Coco is a unisex gourmand floral that links a magnolia opening to the creamy sweetness of coconut and vanilla. Magnolia opens lightly and floral, then coconut and coconut water take over in the heart. In the base, musk and vanilla soften everything; the overall impression is sweet, creamy and powdery. Voters rate its longevity as good and its sillage as moderate, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. It reads equally well on men and women. Perfumes with a close profile include Corania Tutti Délices - Coconut Cocktail and Maison Noblesse Puffy.

Cotton Candy

7.5

Private Mood · 2010

Citrus · Floral · Sweet

Private Mood Cotton Candy is a sweet, creamy unisex scent built around coconut milk and cotton candy. It opens with coconut milk, which brings a soft, milky sweetness. Cotton candy sits in the heart, and musk and vanilla in the base close it with a powdery warmth. Sweet, gourmand and creamy accords dominate, while the citrus, floral, spicy and smoky sides stay in the background. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it is noticeable up close without filling a room. The vote counts are small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. Grandeur Cotton Candy and Jeroboam Insulo have a close profile.

Vanille et Cognac

7.5

Private Mood

Sweet · Gourmand · Spicy

Private Mood Vanille et Cognac is a sweet, gourmand and spicy unisex scent built around bitter almond, cognac and vanilla. It opens with bitter almond, orange blossom and cognac, giving a warm, slightly boozy sweetness. In the heart, patchouli and tonka bean settle that sweetness onto an earthy, creamy base. Vanilla, amber and gaiac wood dominate the base, and the scent dries down soft, powdery, resinous and faintly smoky. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without overwhelming a room. The dense sweetness suits cool weather and evenings best. It sits comfortably on both masculine and feminine skin. Its profile is close to Zara Radiant Echo and Anatole Lebreton Kairos.

Berrylicious

6.7

Private Mood · 2010

Floral · Fruity · Sweet

In the heart, white rose and red fruits take over, with the floral side softening the sweetness of the fruit. Vanilla absolute anchors the base, and the scent settles into a creamy, sugary warmth. The overall impression is sweet, soft and fruit-led. Sorce In Dreams and Fairy Tales and Guerlain La Petite Robe Noire L'Eau Rose have a close profile.
