| Blends of floral and citrus-based fragrances are recommended for casual and daywear. Spicy, woody or warm amber-based fragrances are traditionally favorites for evening and special occasions. |

| I just discovered Vanilla Fields. I bought it at the drugstore in a three-for-$9 sale (I also bought Emeraude and Sand & Sable). I agree that it's STRONG at first spray. I admit that I also thought it was cheap and horrible. But I gave it another try yesterday, gave it time to develop on my skin, and I fell for it. It made me think of the nicer aspects of Annick Goutal's Songes, actually, but much better on my skin than Songes, which I can't wear. I think it is the combination of jasmine and vanilla that is Songes-like. Anyway, Vanilla Fields is not a true vanilla pod scent. Rather, it is a sweet, creamy, sheer, floral-oriental with an impression of sweet vanilla cream. I was so surprised by how much I like this. I have made it a project lately to try the Coty fragrances at my local drugstore. So far, I think they are terrific value, much better quality than other drug store brands (Dana, et al.). |
