Get the Parfum Crema version,not the spray, it’s warmer, smells better, and lasts longer. It’s also cheaper. Sillage and longevity on the spray are eh at best, the crema is a whole other ball game.
Low sugar quotient, this is not like a cupcake or cotton candy. When vanilla is mixed well with bergamot, it smells a lot like vanilla black tea bordering on tobacco, and this definitely has that element. It’s almost like a combination of SDV and Morn to Dusk, and what’s the matter with that? Nothing.

I begin with acknowledging that I love the name of this fragrance line. Library of flowers brings to mind all the wonderful scent possibilities available from flowers.
True Vanilla is such a pleasure to wear!I cannot stop sniffing my wrist. A new love for me!
I purchased this as part of a charming trio from this line and am in love with this scent. I do get a bit of the citrus which I think brings along the vanilla and amber uniquely. To my nose amber smell slightly of smoke and for some reason this excited me greatly! Possibly reminds me of a hunky ex boyfriend that I was wild about when smoking was permitted everywhere. Vanilla and the smoky lips of my hunky hot guy. Ah sweet youth!
The staying power is about 2 hours on my skin and I wish it was more. No worry, since I am enjoying all 120 minutes of it while it lasts.

One of my favorite things about the Library of Flowers line is that what you see in the ingredients is exactly what you’ll smell. I initially get the bergamot top note (which honestly made me almost not buy this…I avoid most citrus perfumes like the plague), but it evolves into a nice, oddly cool refreshing vanilla with the cozy, warm undertone of amber that gives it a more mature feeling and more depth. Not a big throw, but put enough on and it’ll last a decent amount of hours; I work part-time and this lasted my entire shift plus a little extra.
An unexpected favorite.

This is mostly vanilla and amber, there is a hint of something fruity. The vanilla is a gourmand realistic vanilla extract type scent but a bit deeper/lower toned then actual vanilla extract you’d use for baking. Pleasant but not very special. Lasts no more than 4 or 5 hours and wears close to the skin (minimal sillage.)

Edit: I’ve worn this the last couple days in a row and the logevity has been pretty decent for the office. Projection is minimal but I’ve been getting 5+ hours. Maybe I was going nose blind to this the first time around? Really pretty vanilla amber. Loving it right now. Works for day or night. The shower gel in this scent is one of my favorites.

I like Gourmand fragrances and this is a nice one, reminding me of Montale’s Intense Cafe. Although no coffee is listed, they do share some ingredients and I get a strong sense of coffee/cafe with this. This lasts for hours on my skin. If you like any of the Loukhoum scents, Sweet Oriental Dream, Prada Candy or Intense Cafe I would suggest trying this.It’s also a nice price.

True Vanilla? I don’t think so. I dabbed this one about half an hour ago, and (thankfully), it seems to have wafted away completely. When I first put this on, I smelled something quite medicinal and musty- Herbal Vanilla would probably be a more appropriate name for this one. I’m really glad I didn’t get a larger decant and opted for a 1mL sample instead!

One of many gifts I was gifted today! ღ
I would not call this a deep & dark vanilla like the reviewers below me did… on my skin it’s more like an exotic vanilla with the refreshing aspect of bergamot shining through…
Cute fragrance!!
♥♥♥♥♥

This may be the best vanilla I’ve smelled. It’s rich and dark, and makes me think of creme brulee, vanilla coffee, and burnt sugar. No bergamot came through on my skin or on paper. This faded to a subtle warm sweetness by the 6 hour mark, but lasted all day. I won’t buy a full bottle, but I’ll continue to enjoy my sample on those cold days when you just curl up in some blankets with a good book. It’s very warm and comforting.

This is a linear deep vanilla. Plain and straight forward but very nice. It is not a fresh, airy vanilla. The citrus and amber seem to ground it giving it a warmth and teeny bit of richness. This stays close to the skin and is a great vanilla if this is your type of fragrance. Price point is good and does not smell synthetic. It does not give off a huge amount of sillage and lasted about 4 hours on my skin. B rating for me.
