  |  On my skin this is a beautiful frankincense fragrance, my favorite frankincense scent in fact. The vanilla and the tonka are subdued. This is not a gourmand scent at all, nor is it appropriate to be labeled as a "feminine" fragrance, as it is truly unisex. The vanilla is dry and blends seamlessly with the tonka and frankincense allowing the incense note to be in the forefront. This is another winner from Patricia de Nicolai.The comparisons to Parfum Sacre are quite understandable. Top notes: basil, lemon and mandarin Middle notes: carnation, orange blossom, pepper, cinnamon Base notes: frankincense, vanilla, tonka bean 23 September 2008 |

| A lot more tonka than vanilla, and more feminine than I thought it would be based on the published notes and the reviews. Very nice, very high quality, just not quite for me, even though I'm a big vanilla fan. 18 August 2008 |
 |  I used to love this to death. Now all I can smell is high grade, very resinous pot. Not the signature scent I'm looking for. Maybe 20 years ago...LOL! I'm selling my bottle. :-(12 July 2008 |
 | An amazing scent, simple, brings vanilla out of the kitchen by pairing it with frankincense, one of my most favorite notes aside of vanilla (and others). More weight taken off with topnotes of lime and tangerine. I would've been thrown into a fit of ecstasy if there was a subtle vein of jasmine or tuberose, but Vanille-Tonka still fits the bill for me. Sweet-Earthy-Sensual...PERFECT! 19 February 2007 |

|  Vanilla based fragrances are often too sweet for me, but this one from PdN does it well, taming it with a subtle but earthy base. I'd love it if I were a bigger fan of Tonka bean; unfortunately I'm not and so as it dries down I start to turn away.Nevertheless, it is definitely unique, warm, inviting, and worth a try. If you like a darker, warmer vanilla and you like tonka, then this is almost certain to be a hit. 20 December 2006 |

| Here's what I get, pure and simple: M7 mating with Bellodgia. I can't get any more succinct than that. 18 December 2006 |
