Here's what other people are saying about Absolu de Vanille...
Make sure you sample first- all the ingredients I like in different perfumes- on me this was bitter patchouli and no vanilla in sight. Longevity is good- but my chemistry brings out the resins and patchouli and is monotone. Not my fave.

I sampled because i'm looking for a deeper vanilla - however this one turned into a resinous, patchouli express on me. It's just my body chemistry.. so glad i only spent the $ on the sample instead of the full size.. all the reviews make it seem like everything i've ever wanted!

at the risk of being boring, I'll go 5 stars too. Just lovely. Even in hot summer, which is saying something.

I have sampled both Absolu de Vanillie and Comptoir Sud Pacifique Vanille Extreme, both the are smell the same.

This is a darker take on vanilla just like the description and reviews already suggest. It is still foody/gourmand though, the vanilla is sweet and rich, which is A-okay with me, however patchouli is not one of my favourite notes and although it's well blended and not overpowering, it's there enough to stop me from wanting this.

This stuff is amazing if you love Vanilla!! I put this on and could not stop smelling it! Saving up for the bottle. An investment I'm glad to spend $100 on. But I recommend a sample first just to be safe.

Yes, dark and spicy and velvety vanilla. Not chemical, not too sweet. Just yummy.

I wanted to love this scent, honest, but patchouli and I are incompatible. On me the patchouli comes off smelling dirty, and it appears to be really the most prominent note in the perfume to my nose - I was hoping the vanilla would be more prominent. Then again, it might just be that I *really* don't like patchouli and it bothers me so much that I simply can't smell anything else. if patchouli is your thing, then right on man - this might just be for you.

dark, sultry....with an incense stick vibe...very vanilla but not foody at all. I was worried about the patchouli, but in this I think my nose is interpreting it as incense because I don't get any of the typical barnyard patch. This is going on my wishlist right away.

Smells as if Comptoir Sud Pacifique Vanille Extreme and Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille had a baby. The best of both, to my nose. Added to my FBW list.

dark, spicy vanilla...lasts longer than most maison de vanille scents..not sweet or light...perfect.
