Tom Ford Vanille Fatale Eau De Parfum Spray 50ml

True to its name, this scent is all about tobacco and vanilla, or, maybe more accurately, vanilla tobacco. Rather than coming across as two separate notes, the two are blended perfectly into a sweet and spicy, uplifting fragrance. The tobacco isn't that of a lit nor unlit cigarette or even a quality cigar; it's the most comforting of tobacco smells, at least to me: pipe tobacco. It's not harsh or invasive but warm and inviting. People often cough when they walk by cigarette smokers, but, more often than not, people smile and remark on how good it smells when someone nearby is smoking a pipe. Tobacco Vanille is not what I would call gourmand. The vanilla seems to round out the tobacco in the most pleasant way.

It's not harsh or invasive but warm and inviting. People often cough when they walk by cigarette smokers, but, more often than not, people smile and remark on how good it smells when someone nearby is smoking a pipe. Tobacco Vanille is not what I would call gourmand. The vanilla seems to round out the tobacco in the most pleasant way. The way the tobacco and vanilla play off each other is complicated but comforting. Imagine finding your non-smoking mother baking but with a cigarette in one hand and a tray of cookies straight from the oven in the other. The vanilla is clean and almost sharp without the warmth many vanilla fragrances have. The tobacco is pleasurable and not dirty. The two together so blatantly and contradictory yet working together so well just makes you take notice but then step back and enjoy it without overanalyzing it. It starts with sweet vanilla and fresh tobacco leaves. It is quite spicy in a sweet sexy way. After a while the tobacco gets more dominant and it is really sensual- The dry down is to die for. It smells like sweet, cosy, nice vanila blended with a pinch of autumn dry leaves. I've grown up surrounded by the scent of tobacco, however I am never repulsed by it. The smokiness of the scent seems to be a comforting medium for me. When combined with the rich vanilla in this fragrance, the tobacco really takes on that soothing feel. It feels rather 'homey'. The scent is very strong at first, very rich and tobacco-y. If you've ever smelt a packet of cigarettes you'll find that they have a slight raisin type smell. This certain smell has been emulated in Tobacco Vanille's opening. The vanilla is sweet, yet not too sweet. This is certainly something that would smell amazing on both men and women, a true unisex fragrance. For me, this is the ultimate fall fragrance (maybe it's the similarity between the sweet smell of TV's tobacco and the sweet smell of hay in the sunshine)

I recently received Tobacco and Vanille by Tom Ford as a free product to test. I was aware of the brand but did not own any TF products so I was excited to try this. This is such an amazing Parfum and I instantly fell in love with it. I normally have everything I own scent free due to allergies, so I was pleasantly surprised with this product. First the packaging, I could tell just from the feel of the box it was a high end product. When I opened it I found a cigar looking container that was such a warm rich shade of brown with gold. Inside was a travel vile of the parfum. The metal case was heavy and had a magnetic lid. As for the scent, I was surprised at how subtle the tabaco note was. I did fear it would smell like nasty cigar smoke. Instead I found the most ... MoreI recently received Tobacco and Vanille by Tom Ford as a free product to test.

Inside was a travel vile of the parfum. The metal case was heavy and had a magnetic lid. As for the scent, I was surprised at how subtle the tabaco note was. I did fear it would smell like nasty cigar smoke. Instead I found the most pleasant combination of a delicate tabaco leaf and a rich vanilla. Instantly I felt like I was sent to a large decadent room with rich, dark wood walls and a fire going during winter wrapped in a warm blanket. I know it may sound odd, but I can’t really describe the depth of this scent and each note coming from it without expressing how it made me feel. It was as rich and warm as the container it came in. Each note blended together to create this delicious scent. This Parfum is perfect for men and women alike.

Overall, Tobacco Vanille is intoxicating but in a good way. It smells sweet with damp tobacco, comforting vanilla and warm spice notes that linger till they dry down, though weaker towards the end of the development. The fragrance seems to be somewhat linear only due to the strong and persistent opening notes. The aromatic tobacco note is reminiscent of a sweet pipe variety and is not at all dry. It presents a very rich smell with light caramel and malt facets. The warm and sweet tobacco note seems to be closed tight to the weighty vanilla note, as they appear to have been melded together. The additional opening and heart sweetness derive from different indistinct spices, but in the heart are noticeable faint notes of cocoa and tonka that start to shape the ... MoreOverall, Tobacco Vanille is intoxicating but in a good way.

It presents a very rich smell with light caramel and malt facets. The warm and sweet tobacco note seems to be closed tight to the weighty vanilla note, as they appear to have been melded together. The additional opening and heart sweetness derive from different indistinct spices, but in the heart are noticeable faint notes of cocoa and tonka that start to shape the sweetness in another direction. After a few hours, the tobacco flavoring becomes drier and features hints of sprouts, hay, wood, and leather. We are no longer confronted with the initial note of rich and moist aromatic pipe tobacco. It gains a floral touch and evolves into a Virginia or English type of tobacco. Despite the lingering vanilla note, we might be able to perceive sweet base notes like dried fruits, nuts, and tonka, as well as some woody accords.

This Tobacco Vanille Eau De Parfum is noted as a warm and spicy eau de parfum that reinvents classic tobacco. I was impressed with the travel size bottle I received, it was 0.3 oz/ 10 ml brown bottle, very sleek and nice, just what I expected from Tom Ford. Upon my first spritz, I immediately was intrigued! This is an exotic fragrance! At first you get a hint of sweet tobacco, then the vanilla comes through and you get this fragrance of warm and spicy that is a Unisex/Genderless Scent. This is definitely a scent a woman can pull off individually or by layering as this is a layerable scent. I do get the tobacco but it's very faintly present. It is so soft and not the kind of smoked tobacco scent that's strong and pungent but more of the fresh tobacco leaf.

It's spicy, it's warm, it dries down to a nice powdery vanille without being too overly sweet and it really settled well with my body chemistry. Personally, I like to layer it with Oud Wood for that perfect fall scent! I tried it solo and it was nice, but I like the unique blend when layered. I definitely recommend this if you are a Unisex parfum lover and a Tom Ford user, you will not be disappointed!

I was quite surprised to find out I would be receiving a Tom Ford box. Upon opening it to find the Tobacco Vanille eau de parfum I found the spray in a box and when I pulled it out, it was a sleek cylinder with gold wrapped around the top where it opened. I also noted the top has a magnetic part so the lid comes off easy and easily makes sure it’s back closed after spraying. Before I sprayed it the first time, I let it set out on my nightstand so I could just smell what would funnel out. At first I thought it wasn’t a scent I’d like. Finally I opened the top and sprayed a couple of sprays. WOW! I was over the moon at the fragrance flowing through my room. I first caught the tobacco fragrance followed up closely with vanilla scent that made a wonderful combination ... MoreI was quite surprised to find out I would be receiving a Tom Ford box.

I first caught the tobacco fragrance followed up closely with vanilla scent that made a wonderful combination along with a low linger of ginger. As long as I don’t overspray, the fragrance comes together nicely and isn’t too overwhelming. My husband will be wearing this for Thanksgiving dinner with the family and I hope it’s as big of a hit as I was for me. Anyone who has looked at or bought Tom Ford knows that it can come with a price tag. If you have a special person in your life that you think would enjoy this combination of fragrances I would definitely recommend this purchase (price point and all considered). Thankful for Tom Ford and Influenster picking me to be a tester for the parfum.

A perfect Fall scent

I want to start off by stating, I had no idea this was a unisex perfume, I usually don't find unisex perfume/colognes appealing for myself. I always find them leaning more masculine. However, this perfume, I fell in love with. I found myself reaching for this more than I had originally thought I would. I actually have worn this 5 out of 7 days a week. I really love this perfume, it's very long lasting, and you can really smell the tobacco and vanilla. It's the perfect smell for Autumn, it reminds me of pumpkin spice. At first I wasn't sure about the scent, because the tobacco notes took me a little bit to get used to, due to it's very potent. However, once you get used to it, if you like tobacco notes, it grows on you. It goes without saying that it is a very ... MoreI want to start off by stating, I had no idea this was a unisex perfume, I usually don't find unisex perfume/colognes appealing for myself.

I like how the lid is magnetic and goes back on easily. Overall, this perfume is perfect. The only reason for four stars is because it's more of a fall scent, in my opinion, maybe winter. But I do highly recommend this perfume, it's a win. One last thing, I did receive this product complimentary of Influenster in return for my honest opinion and feedback.

Amazing cologne!

I like this product a lot because it's extremely unique cologne. I've never smelled anything like it before. It has a seductive quality to it. It's a very masculine cologne so I would recommend this cologne more for men than women. I had my husband wear this whenever we went out, even just to the grocery store because it smells so amazing! I've already made plans to purchase this cologne for the men in my family because it's a brilliant gift. I'm extremely happy that I was selected to try this because it's going to replace my husband's current cologne. I also really enjoy the bottle it's packaged in. The lid is magnetic, which is also quite unique. My husband now wants this same cologne in the larger sized bottle because that one looks like a chess piece and it's ... MoreI like this product a lot because it's extremely unique cologne.

My husband now wants this same cologne in the larger sized bottle because that one looks like a chess piece and it's going to go well with his new Tom Ford collection he's now starting. I noticed distinct notes of tobacco and vanilla, spice and wood. I just discovered that I can remove the bottle from the container it comes in to see how much cologne is left in the bottle, which is awesome and convenient! I received this cologne for free in exchange for my honest review

Beautiful and unique

This fragrance is so warm with woodsy, yet slightly sweet notes. It’s absolutely delicious on! Gives a very grown and sexy vibe. Be careful though because it is a very strong fragrance. A little goes a long way. It’s definitely not one you’ll need a few sprays of. If you get overwhelmed by scents you may want to spray it up into the air in front of you and walk through it to create more of a lighter misting over yourself, but if you like the warmer heavier scent that you get when it mixes with the skin, apply directly to pulse points. You really can tailor it to your liking. The travel size bottle is such a great size too! Not like other travel sizes that are way too small. This one is still a good amount but small enough to pack easily. The packaging is very sleek ... MoreThis fragrance is so warm with woodsy, yet slightly sweet notes. It’s absolutely delicious on!

Really keeps it secure during travel. The price for travel size is what you expect for Tom Ford but it’s right on point for such a unique fragrance from a luxury brand. And if there’s one thing Tom Ford always does well it’s capture uniqueness with every scent.

Spicy & Warm

I am a woman who likes unisex scents (e.g. Jazz Club, By the Fireplace, Colonia, BR540) and gourmands (e.g.Lilac Love, Lira, Love & Crime, Lolita Lempicka). This scent is marketed as unisex with the obvious main notes being tobacco and vanilla. On me it is *very* spice forward. I smell clove, allspice, and nutmeg. It stays spice forward for a long time but does eventually mellow out to a soft tobacco. I get very little vanilla. It is so heavily spice forward for me that I have a hard time thinking of anything other than Christmas. I think it also makes it more masculine than unisex. I tried two experiments and layered it with MM By the Fireplace and then with CSP Vanille Extreme. In both cases the spice still overwhelmed everything initially but did mellow it out ... MoreI am a woman who likes unisex scents (e.g. Jazz Club, By the Fireplace, Colonia, BR540) and gourmands (e.g.Lilac Love, Lira, Love & Crime, Lolita Lempicka).

I tried two experiments and layered it with MM By the Fireplace and then with CSP Vanille Extreme. In both cases the spice still overwhelmed everything initially but did mellow it out faster as it dried down and amplified the vanilla, and in the case of By the Fireplace, also added a nice sweet, boozy undertone, making it more wearable for me. Ultimately, while this is a lovely and complex scent, I would have a hard time wearing it any other time than around the Christmas holiday or while at home during a snow storm. However, I also need to note that the packaging is stunning. I received the 10ml and the metal atomizer with magnetic cap is solid and luxurious. This is my first TF scent and while this night not be my exact cup of tea, the quality of the scent and packaging will have me trying more.

Sweet & Spicy

I received this product complementary from Influenster and Tom Ford in exchange for my honest review.I was pleasantly surprised by Tom Ford’s Vanille Eau De Parfum Spray. My first impression of this gorgeous fragrance was how warm , spicy and sweet this Parfum is & it made me feel like I was in a jazz club. I usually don’t go for the spicy unisex fragrances. I’m more of a sexy fruity , sweet & floral type woman. This blew me away & my husband loved this fragrance on me & he thought it was a very sexy fragrance on me. I love how Tom Fords Fragrances layers well together and with bath and body products I already use. I think it smells amazing with Tom Fords Ébène Fumé Parfum.

This is a great Parfum for the fall and winter, I love wearing it on date night or a girls night out. I’ve received many compliments on this Parfum. The travel size is nice to throw into your purse , I thought the bottle was so luxurious looking with the beautiful amber color with gold accents and you can remove the Parfum bottle inside. The magnetic bottle was something I really loved as well. I would love if Tom Ford would sell refills to put the outer bottle. This Parfum is something I’d recommend buying for yourself or as a gift. I’m going to buy me another bottle of this.
