Dulce Vanilla (1999)
by Coty

I used to like this in a time when I was a sucker for vanilla-based scents, so I bought two bottles.
Now I that I have developed more of a "grown up" taste I find it cloying and cheap smelling. It is not even ultra sweet or gourmand, it just smells like the plastic that dolls are made of.
Non interesting at all.

Dark Vanilla was VERY nice! This was too sweet, sickly smelling for me. Very much like candy. Where the Dark Vanilla dried down and softened, this doesn't. IT also smelled a bit like plastic and cheap smelling. Not good at all.

Badly overripe, overly sweet, cloyingly bad and chokingly cheap smelling. Dulce Vanilla is said to be composed of coconut, caramel, amber, raspberry and, of course, vanilla. Had I gotten even two of those notes coming through in a semi-palatable way, I would have been satisfied. I innocently tried it on expecting something creamy-caramelly and dulce-de-leche like. What I got was fruit reek, the worst kind of cheap perfume smell, the kind that just dogs you in your dreams long after you've finally managed to sandblast it off your skin. This and something called "Delicious Feelings" by Gale Hayman are two of the most pernicious, awful things I've ever smelled in my life - and I've smelled a lot, a lot! Avoid this like the plague, unless eau de sweet-hot garbage appeals to you. You have been warned!
