Dark Vanilla Coty for women

Lippendoo
Ebay has several "buy it now" bottles.

I absolutely loved this fragrance. I got so many compliments on it when I wore it. People would stop me and say What are you wearing? It smells so good. I am a "sweet" fragrance person, so usually a not heavy sweet smelling fragrance suits me to the 'T' I really enjoyed the body lotion, but have not been able to find it for a while. Does anyone know if it is still available?

I had the perfume and the scented lotion both that I loved. The lotion actually moisturized very well and smelled great. The perfume smelled wonderful too.It was deeper that a regular vanilla and I liked that. Sillage was good.

Update here. I had quit wearing this as I have been playing with other scents, but decided to start it again....LOVE. Since I love vanilla this one is the one that smells most like true vanilla for me. It has that non-powdery,sweetness that always makes me feel warm and safe. I think it does have a dark deepness that makes one think oF a special caramel filled fall day. This is very sweet, bold and sensuous. Now I am stingey and will keep all my bottles!!!

I wore this alot in 2003 but it can be cloying and heavy. I have several bottles that I bought as a lot on EBay so if anyone would like, leave me a message.

I used to have this, and it smells quite nice for the price, not the best, but perfectly acceptable.

I think this is a lovely frag, specially if you like vanilla in them. It's a pretty scent with a dark side. Back in the 90's I went through a couple of bottles since I used to be in love with vanilla scents.

This is one of the my favorite fragrances, I have had a bottle since probably the mid to late 90's. I use it mostly as my winter fragrances, its just so lovely, I hope to find anoter bottle soon so I can keep it as a back up.

Have bought this on sale for next to nothing. It's okay, not great. I like vanilla, but prefer smokey evening scents with more complexity-like Shalimar. My husband didn't care for it-but then I put on a very inexpensive vanilla amber body lotion with Dark Vanilla and he said I smelled "nice". The moisturizer seemed to give this perfume the depth it was lacking. Still-for the price- a decent option if you want to save the expensive stuff for special occasions.

This is not your average vanilla. It's very deep, dark, heavy and smokey, to be worn at night. This takes hours to reach the drydown, but once it does, it becomes much more pleasant and lasts forever. I prefer my vanilla more light-hearted and sweet, so this isn't for me. Try it before you buy it - it's not for everyone.

This was my first "mature" fragrance--according to this website, it came out in 1998, but I was sure I'd had it before that...I must be confusing it with Vanilla Musk. I suppose that would make it my first mature college freshman fragrance as opposed to middle or high school. Oops! Anyway, I remember it reminded me of vanilla extract that one uses for baking--with a syrupy note. I liked it then, I probably would find it a bit too sweet now. I was lured in by the fact that I wore Vanilla Musk first, and that there was this elegant "dark" ad for the Dark Vanilla. Yes, I fell prey to perfume advertising... :)

I'm disappointed in this.

Immediately I thought of a children's bubblegum flavored cold medicine. It's an artificially sweet and synthetic vanilla smell.

It also enduced a headache... When a vanilla fragrance does this, I know it's far from a true vanilla smell. Most synthetic types do this to me.

Fragrance stirs the emotions. This composition does this deeply, seductively and softly ....cheep chic. It's out there. Just search online.

I strongly dislike this scent, but I'm a vanilla hater. However! It smells like a "dark" vanilla should, slighty masculine and not so "pretty". Good for night time. My bottle (well my moms bottle...) is gold, with yellow liquid, not purple,but the bottle shapes and font are the same. Mabye the version Im talking about is discountined because this perfume is extremely potent and can last for days on the skin!

I absolutely love Dark Vanilla Coty! Great fragrance, I get tons of compliments whenever I wear it! My only complaint, it's hard to find!

Don't expect this one to last more than one hour after application! I was very disappointed in this scent for the scent life. Guess thats what I get for buying an inferior product like Coty. Was a time years ago things were not this bad with being watered down but I would never spend my money on this product again.

I can't believe I found a bottle of this for $6! So excited as I've had it on my test list for quite awhile.
It opens right away with a warm true vanilla, smooth and sultry. After a few minutes it starts to darken, becoming more boozy and "bourbonesque". It's slightly powdery but this only softens and compliments the rich overall tone of the vanilla.
The jasmine doesn't stand out to me.
I think it smells much better than Vanilla Fields. I do agree it is similar to Tocade which is another boozy vanilla offering. I think I like this one better, but the wearing will tell.

gorgeous scent! this vanilla composition is not sweet as the most vanuilla scents. and somehow dark and elegant. longlasting too. nice bottle. love it! i m also used to layer it with other scents to give them a longlasting base. :) recomended!

This is what I consider my "mature" sultry vanilla. Not the sugar sweets that I normally wear. It's a serious one. It's not for kids...it's for a woman.

This is my all time favourite perfume. The scent works perfectly with my body chemistry and lasts for hours.
The richness of this perfume gives it a very sultry, sexy feel.
I only wear perfumes with vanilla notes and I've yet to find anything comparable to this.

i liked it but its a shame that it fades away too soon :-(

the vanilla only serves to warm up this fragrance. I only get big white floral - disappointing and headache-inducing. Then again, white florals are stricly no-no.

Thanks for swapping me for this one, c3c! One person's scrubber another person's perfume, lol.

That said, this is probably as close as I'm ever going to get to the feminime vanilla that's perfect for me (I dislike sweet scents). My standard vanilla was Givenchy Pi, but Dark Vanilla has that unmistakably girly comforting nature to it, just right for a chilly night snuggled under the comforters.

At first application, it smells like a dead ringer for Tocade, albeit darker, deeper, and less powdery. But Dark Vanilla rounds out to be smooth, not powdery, and much more sensual than Tocade with the plush white florals. A deep sweet gourmandy jasmine that I actually find myself craving at times! I suspect I might actually finish this 1.0 oz!

I wore two bottles of this in 2001. It's a floral vanilla underneath a light cloud of incense. I remember being pleased and receiving tons of compliments. Not sure how I'd react to it nowadays, but I'd love to find out.

I took a chance and purchased this online because of the vanilla description. This isn't they vanilla I was looking for. It's not unpleasant but not my style.
For vanilla I prefer LaVanila Vanilla Coconut or Filles des Iles Floral Sensual.

I think this is lovely, not amazing but still for the price its very sweet and deep vanilla and so worth it.

I like the jasmin / vanilla combination. Hard to find, though.

Not much different from Vanilla Fields, just more flowers. Not bad for the price.
