Vanille Absolu by Montale is a Oriental Vanilla fragrance for women. The nose behind this fragrance is Pierre Montale. The fragrance features vanilla, cinnamon, cloves and woodsy notes.
I like to blend montale perfumes, and vanilla Extasy gets on so well with other fragrances of the collection, but the best combination so far is with the brain new Aoud Purple Rose, just awesome!!!
After sampling Confetto, Acqua e Zucchero and by Kilian Love Don't Be Shy, this is a very good alternative, I think it's better than the 2 first ones (Profvmvm) and second best after by Kilian, but the price is better!
I'm not normally a fan of vanilla based scents, and I rushed to finish this little sample off so that I could move onto the Montale samples that I really wanted to try, but I'm very impressed by Vanille Absolu. The initial gooey vibrant vanilla melted into an enveloping mix of comforting sweetness and a slight uplift of spice. Sweet, slightly sensual, fantastic longevity and fair to moderate sillage.
The notes sounded wonderful, but the end result smells too fake, sticky and plasticky vanilla to me. I can stand it on my skin, but just barely. There are so many better vanillas out there while this, IMHO, is one of the worst.
Let me just inform you that there is also another montale fragrance with vanilla, called Chypre Vanille which is quite interesting! Unfortunately its not listed!
I am sad. I don't like this after all.:(
I love the notes but not how they are blended in this particular perfume. I can't wait to switch to something else at my lunch time.
This seems to be a nice combination of sweet, foody, deep and sultry, as far as vanilla is concerned. I do not get any oud notes at all in this. (Im surprised because Im well aware of Montale's seeming obsession with oud's.) At first there seems to be a faint bourbon note, but this quickly settles into a creamy but sultry vanilla. It is slightly foody but not sickly sweet. It's very nice but ultimately I have so many vanillas and this is just a bit too boring for me.
Today i test this awesome fragrance and i must buy this scent!It's the best vanilla scent i ever smelled,it's not a chemical and synthetic smell,Vanilla Absolu is so natural and over delicious.When i took the first sniff my mouth is watering.This is so yummy...it smells like vanilla cotten candy taste and it also smells like hot caramel or something in that way.It's very sweet but for me not bothersome,a very good scent for the colder day's and absolute a fragrance to feel comfortable and cute with it.Vanilla Absolu is very warm and calming,the cinnamon gives a sensual and sexy touch,and it's really creamy.
this is probably one of the worst excuses for a perfume i have ever smelled! on me it smells like those cheap little plastic baby dolls you used to be able to get at Stedmans or Economy Fair (or whatever dime store you remember as a kid) - plastic, plastic, plastic! i am SO disappointed!
now, if i could find something that smells exactly like cabbage patch dolls smelled when they first came out - Eureka!!!!
Oh, yes, it soft and intimate vanilla, it's not radiant, but truly feminine.
Soft vanilla with litte hint of spices.
