The 7 Virtues Vanilla Woods Review
Basenotes - "An incredibly long-wearing real vanilla scent. It smells like vanilla pudding, with a hint of roses and musk."
Fragrantica - "Let me start off by saying I am a vanilla lover. I was on a hunt for a nonspicy, non-boozy/syrupy vanilla. This fragrance is everything I've ever dreamed of! The perfect woody vanilla with no hint of spice whatsoever. The light pear note in the opening brightens it up a little. Like another reviewer, this is what I hoped La Belle to be. Highly recommended!"
Fragrantica - "This perfume reminds me of a thicker and better version of Zara’s Rich, Warm, Addictive. Vanilla Woods is a smoky, incensey, and woody vanilla and caramel blend with a rich amber base. I almost detect a very quiet honey note somewhere in there. I don’t smell any pear or rose notes. It smells delicious, sweet, smooth and comforting. This will be a staple gourmand fragrance for me to wear in the autumn."
