Would really appreciate any help. I haven't been able to find a perfume I like for years.

I really love vanilla essential oil, and the sweet powdery type of amber. Also like sandalwood.

Are there any perfumes with a strong vanilla and/or amber base? I tried Givenchy Organza Indecence a few years ago, but (I'm such a twat :o) the name puts me right off. It's such a mouthful. "What perfume do you use, JM?" "Givenchy Organza Indecence." "Erm what, it's indecent???" Or I just call it "Indecence" which is worse, or say its by Givenchy and I can't remember the name so I look feeble...

Anyway, if I really loved it I'd put up with its stupid name but it's definitely not "the one".

Can anyone recommend any others? Im looking for
sweet
vanilla
amber
anything that smells like sugar cookies :)

Thanks in advance!!

And Avon have three (?) Sassy Swirls vanilla based scents.

I bet this is lovely, should you have a spare £65. I've not tried it, but I have had other Artisan perfumes.

There are a few stockists around, but they're not easy to track down ime.

"Catnip for men" :o that's about the best description I've ever heard for Angel. Dh nearly marries me all over again if I happen to spritz that on.

It makes the dog sneeze though!

Am going to have to postpone trying any of these as I can't smell a thing - have come down with DH's rotten cold. Gah.

Thank you so much for all the suggestions, keep them coming! :)

I love vanilla/amber scents and really like Donna Karan Cashmere Mist. It has notes of vanilla and amber.
