Nauseating. It starts off as way too sickly sweet, and then develops a strong flour/dough note, and it’s just really gross and unpleasant. I’m glad for those whose chemistry this works with, but it’s a total scrubber for me.

This is gorgeous! I ordered Sweet Vanilla & was sent a generous sample of VC with it. OMG! I feel like this weird smell ppl are referencing is a slight OUD, even tho fragrantica doesn’t list it. They don’t always list the notes exactly as they are from the creator, so,,,not sure. If you don’t understand Oud, or like it, you won’t get it. I do & I LOVE this, even moreso that my sweet vanilla, which smells like a “Lighter” version of CSP Abricot Vanille to me. All of them are amazing!

I was excited to give this a try from a sample I received. I love anything that smells like vanilla cake. At first spray, it smelled like a freshly baked vanilla cake, a few minutes later, it dried to this almond urine smell. I couldn’t take it. I could still detect a baked scent, but the almond and meringue over power and end up smelling like urine on me. I was hoping it would be like Comptoir Sid Pacifique vanilla extreme, but maybe more Carmel.

I thought I couldn’t possibly go wrong with this one – I love Montale gourmands and “Vanilla Cake” suggests it would be safe for a blind buy. It probably would have been, if it were indeed a vanilla cake, but it’s not. It’s a chocolate chip yoghurt. I can’t smell almond, vanilla or caramel, or milk itself – it is overwhelmingly a yoghurt with a very realistic note of chocolate chips, or, rather, cacao. It’s very unusual, but it’s not what I was expecting and slightly disappointing. Sillage and longevity are, as some others have noted previously, weak. Definitely try before you buy.

In search of the ultimate vanilla cake fragrance and being a huge Montale fan, I had high hopes for this one. I WISH I’d gotten the same result as some of the positive reviewers! Alas, it was not meant to be. At first, it smells mostly like vanilla extract + a cake-y note in the supporting role. In a couple of hours it completely vanished without any projection or trace despite layering it on fragrance-free lotion to make it last. I can see this being quite enjoyable as a vanilla perfume that can be enjoyed in hot weather. However, for the price, I cannot justify the purchase as it has the strength of a body spray on me. The search for that ultimate “cake-y vanilla” perfume continues…

Nothing special, vanilla vanilla vanilla…

A great gourmand.
The initial blast is that of almonds and milky vanilla. It kind of reminds me of a vanilla ice cream in fact. The opening is quite sweet so for you people who do not have a sweeth tooth, stay away.
As the scent develops, it gets slightly more ”doughy” if that makes sense. During this stage it does indeed smell more like vanilla cookies and the sweetness has settled down nicely after let’s say 1-2 hours.
This could be hard for some men to wear but I think that if you’re a gourmand lover you can absolutely pull it off. Performance is good and it is suitable year around except very hot summers.
8/10

Montale Vanilla Cake is like a big bowl of confectioner’s sugar, that as you stir it, a swirl of the powder lifts up and you can taste it and it gets in your nose and it’s super sweet smelling. It smells like vanilla frosting on freshly baked cupcakes. This is so delicious! It would be equally yummy on men, so don’t be afraid to wear this.

Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille for Women is how I would describe this one. Unbelievably sweet, potent and long-lasting, but has some interesting depth for a sweet fragrance (much like TV). Unfortunately, this fragrance is the definition of cloying. Even having a small dab of it on a piece of papertowel, it will fill a room with it’s scent and will make you sick to your stomach from the insane unrelenting sweetness before long. Maybe women are used to this style of sickly-sweet scent, but as a man this is insane (I got this sample for the fun of it, as it sounded neat and was a new release).
Tobacco Vanille is ridiculously sweet/cloying/strong as well and I cannot stand it for that reason, even touching the sample vial of either of these fragrances makes my fingers smell of the scent for at least 6 hours, even after many washings/scrubbing.
Don’t get me wrong, I love the smell at first sniff, one of the best things I have ever smelled — A picture perfect scent of a cupcake with lots of frosting… but the sheer lasting power and potency of this beast causes a brain-overload of sweetness.

Jelly Belly Butter Popcorn flavor.

This reminds me of a yoghurt cake I had in Greece. It’s the milky note no doubt. The almond is a bit bitter in the beginning but as time passes the sweet vanilla overtakes it and you get vanilla pastry. Then you are left with strong vanilla pastry lasting for hours as expected from Montale. Sillage is strong too, spray cautiously…it’s made for cozy, dark winter days and nights.

After initial spray I was having only one word: WOW, this is amazing. Just like raw shortbread dough with almond essential oil added. Creamy, buttery and milky. My euphoria lasted 10 minutes then it turned into vanilla candle smell. Incredibly soft and with no sillage. I’m vanilla scent monster and was hoping this would be my new trophy but no. Way to weak and underdone for Montale.

امروز با بسته بندي عطرم سمپل اين عطر جديد هم به دستم رسيد
جز اولين نفراتي هستم كه در ايران دارم اينو تست ميكنم
بوي خامه اي و شيرين داره
مثل تركيب خانه و شير كه بوي وانيل هم احساس ميشه
اين ادكلن به نظر من به درد اقايون خوش خنده رو ميخوره نه ادماي جدي
اما تركيب بوي خوشمزه و خامه و نرمي داره مثل شير و كارامل با كني تلخي كه وانيل داره ميگيره
بوي خوبي داشت اما با خاص و اينكه خيلي دوست داشتني باشه براي من نبود
اميدوارم كمكي كرده باشه
به نظر من بيشتر به درد زمستان و بهار ميخوره اما خوب باز سليقه اي است
دوستارتون
