I am not big on oriental scents but that one is very nice, fresh, classy..the vanilla is what remains on me, it isnt an unplesant scent..if you truly like vanilla..light and feminine..just not for me!

Rich Scent! Love it, would really enjoy a FB of this. It is something that could be worn everyday and though it's not complex it's truely a star in it's own way. I get vanilla and patchouli on my skin..

Here's a dream that bears his name: Cristobal, 1998, the soul of Paris, the soul of the Master. Cristobal is a rich and sensuous oriental fragrance created like a true perfume whose floral facets bring a sleek and classical elegance. A fresh and transparent top note.
Class!

First of all the bottle is adorable. The fragrance itself is like a champagne, gold and fizzy, rich in aromas. I like SandraS' description about it. I know that there isn't besides the notes, but I taste quince in it.

In my opinion this perfume is really elegant, though it's too sweet in the beginning it lasts all day and after time gets even better.. it's lovely and desirable!

I was a bit disappointed with this one. Yes, Cristobal has its good qualities, and it doesn't smell at all bad .... but I'm getting way too much Eau de Cream Soda upon application. On my skin, it really smells like I've spilled a fizzy drink all over me. I feel that this fragrance does not do the beautiful bottle justice and it just lacks that "Wow" factor that I'm looking for in a perfume.

to smell this perfume is like taking a walk in the park on cold fall days. The scent of crisp cold air mixed with dry leaves and dry fruits. Sharp at first, like a cold wind, it dries and softens to a warm spicy scent. When i wear it I always imagine coming home to a blazing fire, after a walk. As others said, its a classy perfume and stands on its own. It does make a statment.

I was given a very small sample bottle of this perfume years ago, from that day it became my favorite perfume of all time, it took me at least 8 years to find it on the high street, so if you find it buy it! this perfume is rare to buy in the UK... I love it and always will, it has a very sexy scent and you don't need much as it lasts and lasts, every man I have met always say that I smell lovely... enjoy

Definitely a classic worth knowing. I like the top notes which blend beautifully. After that it develops poorly getting dull and excruciatingly sweet (at least on my skin).

My first and most incredible scent. I love it till now, because of taste of dreamy Autumn flowers blooming - of which it gets me the reminescence still:) It has a very strong romantic blush of blooming flowers bouquet, mixed with sweet and weighed to the proportion vanilla spice. It reveals it's beauty in the moist and soft Autumn air most, when you get the first chilles and there the first traces of frost appear. It gives very feminine and a bit melancholic, yet sweet and pleasent taste. I loved it for my daily wear, and it gave me the most pleasure while wearing it on my skin and sensing it... Felt like extension of myself.

Sweet and elegant flowery fragrance, that's what Cristobal is for my nose. I use it when wearing business clothes, luv it!

The sandalwood, patchouli and vanilla base is too flat and gloomy.

Review below viewing threshold.
I'm in love with the bottle, one of the most elegant and beautiful ones I've ever seen. On the other hand, the fragrance seems to be very sharp: beautiful notes it has, but a somewhat agressive vanilla scent is all I can smell after a few minutes:(

This is my favourite perfume of all time.
It just makes me feel so at one with myself. I hope it is always available!
