Tom Ford Vanilla Sex Perfume Review

Tom Ford Vanilla Sex: Is It Worth It?

Tom Ford's Vanilla Sex Eau de Parfum: when this perfume was first teased, I thought it was going to redefine vanilla perfumes. This fragrance was underwhelming to me, but before we get there, let’s get through the notes and fragrance profile.

Key Fragrance Notes:
(from the brand website)

VANILLA, ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT-AFTER INGREDIENTS IN MODERN PERFUMERY, ASSUMES A ROLE THAT IS ANYTHING BUT ORDINARY IN VANILLA SEX EAU DE PARFUM FRAGRANCE.

  • FRAGRANCE FAMILY: AMBER

  • SCENT TYPE: AMBER

  • KEY FRAGRANCE NOTES: VANILLA TINCTURE INDIA, VANILLA ABSOLUTE, SANDALWOOD ESSENCE

  • 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 AND AN EXQUISITE ULTRAVANIL™MOLECULE. 


Overall Impression: Vanilla Sex turned out to be a really bland and boring vanilla perfume. It was too heavy on the almond notes, and it smelled cheap and like plastic to me. I am not a fan, but if you like almond perfumes, it might be a good fit for you. Find it here.
