Details & care

What it is: A sensual vanilla fragrance.

Fragrance story: Addictive by nature, glamorous by design, a captivating interplay of deep and bright vanilla notes star in Vanilla Sex. An unforgettable experience, this fragrance is an icon of sensual pleasure that is far from innocent. Vanilla Tincture India, an ingredient created specifically for Vanilla Sex, exudes a soft sensuality. Vanilla reveals a pristine glamour, warmed by mysterious florals and bitter almond essence. A timeless sandalwood quality mingles with enticing tonka absolute. The fragrance is contained in a Private Blend bottle with an opaque cream-colored inner lacquering and a honey-tinted outer layer. It is finished with a caramel-hued plaque.

Style: Warm, spicy, amber.

Notes: Vanilla Tincture India, vanilla absolute, sandalwood essence.

take time to appreciate it

So at first I was kinda let down, but I can say that for some of Tom fords fragrances that are now my fav. Like tobacco Vanille which I hated, but now love. Now this Vanilla sex is a beautiful blend of almond which I got most of and then a lot of tonka bean. It then dries down to a vanilla which was sweet and warm. All I can say is give it a few days. Spray about 4 spays and experience it through the day. It took me about 4 days to appreciate what he has done here and I love it. Also remember its a light scent who’s is perfect for layering. I threw it on top of some Tuscan leather and WOW, but perfectly fine by itself.

I want to love it but I cannot

I saw this and MANY of my favorite influencers says so many good things about it. I’m desperate to get myself new scents since I am obsessed with smelling good!! As I always do!!! Before making big purchase I have to try on first without mixing any other perfume, so I sprayed some on my wrist and like I said I walk around the mall and see how perfume would change on my skin. Just 10 minutes in I smelled it again and I hoped it wasn’t what I imagined it smelled like. So before even telling my husband, I asked his opinion. Right then and there I saw his face expression, it smelled like NYC subway or stairs to gown the subway with a hint of vanilla. I told my husband I wanted to wait 1 more hour and see if it changes. 2 hours later it smelled like pee stains in NYC streets with a hint of vanilla. I just can’t!! I love the cherry’s but not this. I gotta say, it’s long lasting and that’s what I love about Tom Fords Perfume. But seriously!!! Go in person and try it on first. This may match some people, but not everyone. It goes will all the perfumes actually regardless of the price and brands.

Sexy vanilla

This is sexy and warm on me. Scent reminds me of Lavanilla coconut perfume. It's a keeper and very creamy and fresh with an uplifting vanilla. I'd say very feminine....women only.

NOOO!

I have never ever written a review based on sampling a fragrance. Consider this a PSA. I sprayed this and drove away in my car, with my son. I thought we had stepped in dog poop. Nope. Nope. Just the perfume. Envision a dog scooting its butt across your floor with a fresh vanilla scent on its fur. That is this perfume. The car ride home was endless. I gagged. And sprinted to wash my arm.

Vanilla Sex…even when it’s bad, it’s pretty good.

Delightful fluffy vanilla cloud; good longevity and silage; it’s a winner…except the cost is prohibitive.

VANILLA SEX

Disappointed on this TF new release for which I've been waiting for patiently. I didn't like it at all. It smells like nothing special. I had to do a blind buy since they didn't have any sample at the store, and sadly it went back to Nordstrom. I only gave the 3 star for the name brand which I adore and have many of them, but VANILLA SEX was horrible.

Ummm disappointed

It has a plastic smell to it. It’s not a soft vanilla. I’m not really sure what the attraction to this fragrance is? It’s a very harsh smell.

Disappointed

With a name like Vanilla Sex, I thought this would be a fabulous scent like his other scents. I was disappointed because it’s a soft scent with a medicinal undertone. I was told it was a layering fragrance. I like a stronger scent with a vanilla base. My favs are Aventus by Creed and Guilty by Gucci. So layering a soft scent with a heavier scent does not work.
