Rapa Nui for sugar, Tihota is, quite simply, The One. The One that will call to you every moment you're not smelling it, The One that you've only had hints of in other vanilla perfumes, The One that lasts and lasts, The One that has perfectly captured the essence of the pure nature of fresh vanilla beans and has harnessed it beyond your wildest dreams. It inspires obsessive devotion with its fragrance of smooth, vanilla bean pods dipped in honeyed water and left to steep. The result is the pure magic, an unbridled vanilla, sweet, raw and achingly desirable. Of course, Tihota isn't the first perfume to focus on the dark sweetness of vanilla… perfumery is filled with vanillas, but this smells like the dream of a master perfumer who was obsessed with vanilla and was finally given free rein to worship the note with no apologies. It is, without a sliver of a doubt, the finest pure vanilla we've ever had the honor of carrying, and it's so beautiful it pains us to put the bottle down.

Here's what other people are saying about Tihota...

I get why people love this so much: it's a very beautiful, sweet-but-not-cloying, pure vanilla. I honestly love the way it smells. Unfortunately, it has very little staying power, so I can't justify the cost of a full bottle.

A wonderful recreation of vanilla extract without being overly sweet. While it is linear and one note - that is exactly the point of this and it executes well. For my skin that tends to burn off scents quickly, notes like vanilla and amber tend to 'radiate' on me and last forever. This is no exception. Where this loses a star for me is that I cannot really wear this on its own. It is really wonderful layered with other things (my favorite combo currently is Tihota first and then Byzantine Amber lightly sprayed on top, but I'm itching to try it with Akro's Awake and some other things). However, the price tag is a bit steep to be relegated to a layering option! Regardless, if you love vanilla, I'd recommend sampling this one.

The original vanilla lover's fragrance. It's a basic scent, just sweet vanilla, but IMO it still hasn't been beat. If you want a simple, high quality vanilla that doesn't smell weird and artificial (so many straightforward vanillas smell plastic and artificial) and doesn't have anything else in it I think this is the best. Escapade Gourmande is the closest alternative I've tried, but it's still not better than Tihota. Performance is great on me, I have no issue smelling this for hours and I don't have to over spray or huff my wrist like a bloodhound to smell it.

A fairly linear vanilla. I think if BR540 was stripped of all its ingredients, this is the vanilla I would imagine that composes it. It's slightly airy, but first comes off a little synthetic. Longevity is poor to fair on my skin.

By Merci C. - ChemistScientist from Chino Hills on 7/30/2024

My favorite vanilla. Also my bedtime scent for the past 5yrs. It's just a straight up, uncomplicated vanilla. Sweet, cozy, a warm hug. I love it

By ADIJA - Self employed from Jessup on 5/7/2024

I don't know. It's whatever, it's pretty good. I'm not as excited as everyone else I guess.

By M - CEO from La on 4/6/2024

I'm a little late to the party on this one. I got a sample and it's a very nice vanilla fragrance, but it's not beast mode for all the hype. I's a simple warm vanilla bean scent. I honestly thought Vaniglia projected much better and lasted longer imo. I do wish that all Luckyscent samples would come with an atomizer, the dabbing is just not it. I will purchase Vaniglia before buying Tihota, but it's definitely on this list to buy.

By Mimi - Healthcare from Detroit on 2/19/2024

I have been on the search for a vanilla perfume a long time! I wanted something that would be perfect for layering. I have lost count of all the samples I have tried. But THIS IS IT! I love everything about it. It’s perfect and I’m not overwhelmed with all the extra unwanted layers I have tried. And it lasts! I can smell it the next day. I would highly recommend.

By Jules - Nurse from San Diego on 1/22/2024

I love vanilla scents, but not the fake cheap smelling ones. This is a straight forward quality vanilla over white musk fragrance, and I like that it doesn't morphe into anything weird over the course of the day. Yes, it's linear and what you get at the beginning is the same as at the end. It's delicious and I wear it for myself, and some days I like the simple comfort of a lovely vanilla scent. I have many other vanilla gourmands that are more complex, but this one is still my favorite. It works well with my chemistry and there are no surprises. It lasts all day on me and wears close I don't spray much and I don't like to knock out the room with my perfume.

By S - Analyst from DFW on 1/1/2024

I have been looking for THE vanilla perfume for a long time. This was recommended to me by Luckyscent, and I am so thankful because it is one of my favorite perfumes. I've gotten so many compliments on this one, and it lasts a long time compared to others (2-3 hours on me, longer if you spray it on your clothing). There aren't 500 layers to this - You get exactly what you should. It smells like warm vanilla-like someone split a vanilla bean open that has been sitting in the sunshine, or like vanilla bean ice cream with soft vanilla cookies, but for grown-ups. This is not a sugary sweet adolescent smell and surprisingly stands out considering it is so simple. If you're a vanilla connoisseur like me, then you need this for your collection.

By The King of Vanilla - School Counselor from Chicago, IL on 12/28/2023

I wanted to like this one, unfortunately giving 1 star for the following: First spray was overly floral, and almost too light. After 4 minutes, had completely disappeared on my body chemistry. Did not develop and there were absolutely no notes of musk or vanilla. So strange since so many others enjoyed it. It fell flat for me, and “The One that lasts," didn’t.

By Abigail - Sales from Grand Rapids on 12/22/2023

It’s so good. I get compliments every time I wear it. My kids tell me I smell like a cookie. Warm, inviting, and sweet. Doesn’t have any synthetic smell at all.

By Kathleen - Marketer from Chandler on 12/9/2023

This is the dream fragrance, the one I’ve always been looking for. Once it dries down a bit, for me it’s a blend of a vanilla that’s very sweet, but not really a “food” smell, and a very clean, light musk. It’s not at all soapy, but it smells fresh. It’s so comforting, I wear it at night a lot. It’s very subtle and it’s true that the lasting power is not great, but it’s so good that I don’t care. It does have body spray vibes because it’s very linear, but the difference is that there’s no synthetic or chemical-y scent, this smells like a vanilla bean grown in heaven.

By Becca - Software from Nashville on 10/12/2023

Love, Love....smells like a dream.

By Mo - Public Safety from East Haven on 9/11/2023

Smells amazing!!! Vanilla Yumminess!!!

By Nette - CEO from Atlanta on 9/1/2023

Very linear Vanilla...nothing special . Nice but not outstanding.

By Irene - MD from Dumaguete on 8/24/2023

I absolutely loved this one, the smell is so good but it's so faint. I feel as if I'd need to spray a lot of it just for it to be noticeable to me. If it wasn't for that, it would be absolutely amazing!

By R.S - Author from San Diego on 7/17/2023

Man, I'm disappointed. In search of a gorgeous gourmand vanilla and this smells scrumptious at first application. A half hour in though, the vanilla aroma is flat and no better than Bath and body Works vanillas. Glad I didn't waste a bunch of money on this.

By Hilary - Cheesemonger from Seattle on 5/24/2023

This fragrance caught my attention from the very first whiff........... It's a batch of freshly baked vanilla cookies fresh from the oven. OMG, it's so delicious.

By Dani - Appraiser from Farmington Hills on 3/11/2023

Entirely useless purchase because, although this smells good, it has zero lasting power. After about 5 minutes, the fragrance completely subsides and leaves me feeling sorely disappointed, especially because I was assured this has great sillage when purchasing this.
