Roses Vanille by Mancera

Are you interested? Go to Zara, try Rose Gourmand, watch out, let it dry, and if the sweet reminiscence catches you (like it did for me), jump without a parachute if your budget allows. Pierre Montale is very French here: seductive fragrances that scream sexuality. But today, in ‘what elegance France has,’ we have someone kind, sweet, tender, unforgettable, and addictive. Want to get someone in a mood? Smell like Roses Vanille. Imagine someone you know in a weird spot, like a dentist’s office or a bank line; that person was with you for 10 minutes and got imprinted on your soul forever. You’ll become a textbook stalker on social media searching for that person. Roses Vanille seems like just another sweet rose fragrance… but as minutes pass, it acquires something special. You have to pass the 30-minute mark to understand the comparison: remember those aromatic cards you used to collect, the ‘rarities’ in blue or pink tones with bucolic drawings of children, animals, and flower baskets? I never met anyone with those; they were like shooting stars; once in a while someone had 1 or 2, and you’d give them 5 of yours in return. Roses Vanille smells like that card, pure droga. You rub your nose against it again and again, hooked; that’s what you crave with this creation. I see it as a signature scent for the opposite of what I read above: super suitable, creative. If you’re a classic lady or gentleman and wear it, it will be fine dining pastry for a lifelong cream; don’t do it, it emits something too unique for someone discreet. I feel it’s a beautiful, mocking irony against classism; it’s meant to be worn with a torn grunge sweater, not a Chanel-style two-piece. Possible signature scent? Yes, I’m very grunge, compose, and sing in the band ‘Feral Orphans’; some songs already smelled like Roses Vanille before I even knew the perfume. If you’re going to give it a spin, buy it blind, regardless of whether the rose drives you crazy, like it did for me. It’s the smell of sweet, dusty vanilla from those cards. If you’re going to be repellent, hyper-polished, I’d say skip it and look for something more sultry, like Francesca Bianchi fragrances, because there’s nothing worse than being redundant. Scent 9/10, Longevity 10/10, Sillage 7/10, Value/Quality 6/10, Packaging 5/10. Would I buy again? 120 ml, when I run out we’ll see if I’ve gotten tired of it; for now, I’d say yes.

Hi! I got this perfume because I saw several reviews on YouTube and online. Upon opening it and giving it the first spray, in less than a second, Giorgio Armani’s Sì came to mind. It seemed strange to me that no one had mentioned that. I’m being transparent: it’s a sweet perfume with lots of sugar, but with… a persistent boozy note from start to finish. My brother said my room smelled like wine. It’s a good mix of sugar, rose, and liquor that gets sweeter and sweeter. It’s not youthful, but it’s for those who like medium-to-heavy sweetness. It’s elegant; don’t buy it blindly because it’s risky, and it can be unisex. I perceive those three aromas strongly: rose, sugar, and liquor. It’s a more mature, settled scent that doesn’t play tricks but is refined into personality. It brings me many memories of Armani’s Sì, although this one is sweeter. I’d find it sexy to smell on someone else due to the elegance it delivers. ❤️ Love to all ❤️💎

Super delicious and absolutely gorgeous! It’s very similar to Fabulous Srinagar by Salvador Dalí and Intense Café by Montale. It’s niche, high-quality, with an enormous trail, sophisticated, and full of presence. It gives off a vibe of happiness, attractiveness, and elegance, ideal for important events; you’ll receive many compliments. I’ve been wearing it for 6 years. It’s not for every woman, but for someone with personality and confidence. It has a citrus and rose opening, but I don’t sense the aquatic note. I love that the rose isn’t too prominent since I’m not a floral fan. In the end, it leaves that unique smell of vanilla with melted sugar and a spectacular liquor touch. I wouldn’t wear it in the heat, only in the cold.

It has become one of my favorites. I resisted owning it because it became trendy among reviewers, and it felt like you had to have it at all costs. In the end, I gave in to all the reviews, bought it, and I fell in love. It’s an incredible scent, sweet rose, clean, brand new doll… incredible. I have the original and some dupes. If you like perfumes that smell like roses, sweet, and clean, you can’t miss this wonder. When I don’t know what fragrance to use, I reach for Roses Vanilla… it’s a sure win. I also sometimes layer it with Intense Café… and I get an olfactory bomb!!🤩🤩🤩

Too bad I didn’t like it, even though I tested it across different seasons looking for more punch. The rose is very synthetic and tiresome; this house’s fixatives give off a plastic, artificial scent that just doesn’t work for me. The main rose fails—it’s not done right. It has beastly longevity but leaves a heavy trail. It reminds me of a dried flower potpourri air freshener. It’s sweet, linear, and one-dimensional, with tons of copies on the market. It gave me a headache, so I gave it away and asked the recipient not to wear it when I’m around.

To stand out: SWEET ROSE. On my skin, the boozy rose and sweet vanilla stand out. I think the composition is heavily boosted by musk, which I sometimes dislike, but here it’s very wearable and ties everything together, especially with the sugar. It’s excellent quality, lasts all day on skin and even longer on clothes. Plus, once sprayed, it fills the whole room and makes an impression. Totally worth it if you’re missing a vanilla rose. But if you already have perfumes like Intense Café or Ristretto Café, you might not need it.

Mancera perfumes are divine for me, but this one is pure femininity and sensuality. I’ve worn similar scents before and always loved the rose-vanilla combo, but this Mancera is exceptional. You can really taste the rose, vanilla, and sugar… it’s a delight. The trail and projection are massive; with just a few sprays, you could knock over governments. Even after washing my clothes, I can still detect the scent.

Roses Vanille is a rose and vanilla bonbon that, in my opinion, is Montale’s Intense Café without the coffee. Although it’s labeled as feminine, I think it’s a mistake; it smells totally unisex. Longevity and projection are top-notch, like almost everything from Mancera. I love it and recommend it 100%: a perfect seductive aroma for those autumn and winter nights.

I love roses, and I bought this perfume because the vanilla base is delicious on my skin. If it’s just rose with vanilla, my boyfriend compliments me every time I wear it… I discovered that when I’m at the office with air conditioning, it disappears, doesn’t project, doesn’t stand out. However, when I go out and it’s a bit warm, that’s where the magic happens.

I bought it blindly based on the reviews and made a huge mistake. The scent, despite my attempts to get used to it, gives me nausea. It smells like roses soaked in a bottle of liquor with lots of sugar. It didn’t work for me, I don’t recommend buying without testing. That said, the longevity and sillage are eternal.

Absolutely divine, feminine, and sexy. Imagine an old vase with fine liquor and vanilla pods at the bottom. You cut a fresh rose wet from the rain, sprinkle it with sugar, and submerge it in the liquor. The petals get soaked in that heavy, vanilla-sweetened liquid. The longevity and sillage are excellent.

For me, it’s a totally unisex scent with good performance, though a bit heavy for very hot days. It smells rich, like burnt vanilla with a touch of oud at the end. Good longevity and trail. Only for those who love sweet scents; although no one says it, Zara’s Rich Warm Addictive is its clone.

I didn’t like it much. I love Turkish rose, but this perfume felt like a familiar scent to me, even the typical rose with oud found in Arabic perfumes. Even though that note isn’t marked, there’s a hint that reminded me of it. It is definitely potent.

This is ‘the market’s safe bet in recent years’. A secure choice, easy and rich scent, without many additives. Although the brand designed it as feminine, it’s totally unisex. In my experience, it’s the perfume from the brand I’ve liked the most.

What a delight! I’m a huge fan of roses and gardens, and this smells like a freshly cut flower with morning dew at 6 AM. If you love roses, buy it without hesitation. It’s wearable all year, lasts like a rock, and leaves an incredible trail.
