Vanity Femme Essence

“Perfume oil: This fragrance is magnificent- a blast of citrus in the opening followed by juicy florals and sweet vanilla that come together to form a well rounded scent. BUT the longevity is disgraceful for a perfume oil, 3hrs is all I can get out of this on skin. On clothing, it is little more than a skin scent. Projective and sillage are below average, non-existent if I'm harsh.I took a decant for the scent, and gifted the rest.”

“hate hate HATE this perfume up close. It's screechy, overly floral, with no fruit or citrus notes on me. It smells like cheap shampoo, and I'm upset that I even spent $40 CAD on this, because it's harsh and has no peach notes at all.However, once you've let it dry down and you're just catching whiffs of it, it's not that bad and at least makes you smell like you just got out of the shower because it smells like a floral shampoo or body wash.”

“I have the body spray version of this and to me it closely resembles Trussardi Donna EdP, except the latter is leaning towards citrus notes. Vanity Femme Essence has more of a peachy note, but for the florals they're somewhat similar. I'm wondering if the EdP version of Vanity Femme Essence has more sillage, projection and longevity. It's a classy and likeable scent that can be worn both in warm and cooler weather. Contemplating whether to get a bottle of the EdP.”
