Vanille Amour is a drier vanilla with a strong swirl of cardamom and ginger. I can see how it would read Christmas-y to some, and I’d definitely say it’s more of a cozy/borderline sexy winter scent. It does not smell like a fall candle even though the vanilla goes a bit waxy at times (that’s my biggest complaint; if you have Luminae, you know what I mean). Don’t get this scent if you dislike spices because it is definitely spice-forward.
I really like this! The review above is very accurate. Cinnamon and vanilla. I love smelling like the holiday season but I could see how others may not.
3/10 Vanilla amour – strong cinnamon with an undertone of musk and sweet vanilla. Smells like Christmas potpourri.
