Pretty straightforward to my nose- just a simple fruity vanilla scent. It’s pleasant to me, but also quite forgettable. Not a love, not a hate.

I received a sample of this in my glam bag from ipsy this month. I’m surprised that it’s supposed to be a vanilla-blackberry fragrance. While both notes are a definite part of the fragrance profile, I do not find them to be the main notes on my skin. Instead, a rather bitter bergamot is the most prominent. The blackberry in it is not at all a sweet scent. I disagree with this fragrance being considered gourmand; any fruits in this scent are completely without extra sugar or sweetness. The scent even hints at a whiff of bug spray – which at least reminds me of summer camping trips.
Honestly, this is not a very good fragrance in my opinion. Its description compared to what I’m smelling is way off.
Update (based on realizations while I was writing my ipsy review) : I’ve found that the unsweetened blackberry and unsweetened vanilla notes have important supporting roles in this fragrance. Hours later, when the scent is but a slight impression lingering so very close to the skin, it becomes an ever so subtle hint of sweetness in blackberry and vanilla. Interesting. I think perhaps this perfume is more complex than I initially gave it credit for. The perfume is still mis-named, in my opinion, because the bergamot is so strong. It is in no way a simple, straightforward blackberry-vanilla. What you anticipate versus what you get – it’s so unexpected! (That can be good or bad, depending on what you like and what you’re looking for.)

NO NO NO!!!!!! I am a huge fan of this fragrance house but this is a fail for me.It smells like a cheap toxic berry flavored body spray mixed with berry yogurt.I can’t recommend this at all.Stick with Vanille Abricot or Vanille Coco where the vanilla is actually present in the dry down.

CSP Vanille Blackberry is a rich deep berry with vanilla, just like the name says. Really beautiful. Similar to Lancôme Midnight Rose with a better drydown and finish on my own skin. Especially luscious to wear during harvest season from August through October. Full bottle worthy for me.

I love it! Such a lovely tempting and very natural blackberry with light vanilla accord. Not stuffy, soft gourmand fragrance, maybe not typical for the brand, because vanilla is indeed not so heavy and sweet as in other perfumes.

Bright citrus opening, more of a vanilla middle with the blackberry in the background, then the vanilla dies off and it’s just the blackberry. Lasts longer than I expected. Not really sweet. I throw this on for errands and regular daytime wear, it almost gives an ‘athletic’ feel due to the citrus. I tried a couple others (Trish McEvoy, Philosophy) but this one wins since it’s a little brighter.

Dissapointing. I really like the typical Csp vanilla but I don’t detect the usual Csp vanilla. This is more…boring. Its not that I don’t like it, it’s just a repeat of so many other fragrances. Going to the swap/sell shelf 🙁
Also good point ellebelle!

If you like blackberry fragrances, you will like this one. It is similar to Mora Bella, but it has more longevity. Sweet, but not overly so.

Isn’t mure the French word for blackberry? Seems odd to have vanilla with French spelling but not blackberry lol. Curious nonetheless to smell this.
