Here's what other people are saying about Escapade Gourmande...
I bought this perfume because I was following the hype. The bottle is gorgeous and clearly feels luxurious! However, the scent is not special to me. It is dark vanilla forward, but does smell synthetic to me. It also dries down salty on my skin, which I learned, I do not love. I wish it had one more note, possibly a fruit or a pepper? I will be using, but will not re-purchase.

This smells synthetic, I’ve had this for a while. I’ve tried to like this so many times, layer it, let it sit, but it smells artificial. This isn’t worth the price. I haven’t made a dent in this and it’s been over a year. I don’t understand the hype for this, even though I know body changes scents, it smells like Play-Doh out the bottle. No spray, not even the drydown can change the smell.

It definitely smells yummy, but there are better gourmands out there than this. It’s not special.

This perfume continues to grow on me. My sample smelled almost sickly sweet and fairly artificial, but I purchased the full bottle and it's way more grounded. It is quite sweet at the top, but fades into a warm, elegant brown sugar and toasted vanilla. If you find Bianco Latte too artificial, you may prefer Escapade Gourmand ! 4.5/5

This is definitely a unisex gourmand, not masculine nor feminine, somewhere in the middle. This is an elevated version of BBW Warm Vanilla Sugar. It smells like a musky vanilla with a hint of caramelized sugar.

Sampling this and it's not bad, but not mind-blowing either. The journey of this perfume isn't too complex - it's straight-up black sugar and vanilla all the way down, with some musk at the very later stages of the wear. Not much notes-wise to pick apart but it is very powerful - like an actual sugar bomb. I found this to be a bit too sweet and bordering on cloying, particularly the sugar note. I guess it's fine, just have to be conscious of over spraying. I can understand the pricing given the concentration and bottle design, but it is still quite simple. I want to try layering this with a non-gourmand scent because I fear this with another sweet fragrance would put me in a migraine-induced coma.

I wear this by itself on top of oils and it lasts all day. The smell is multi-layered. At first spray, you get vanilla, then it starts settling into caramel creme brulee, then it dries into an amber, musky vanilla. I have gotten so many compliments on this as I'm waking past people. I have to keep this fragrance in my arsenal. .

This is an over-priced warm vanilla sugar from Bath & Body Works. Smells good, but not worth the price when you can get the exact same thing for $20 and have it last just as long.

It is a beautiful vanilla, but nothing more. I would not pay this price for a full bottle of such a basic, one note perfume. Nice, but not FB worthy.

This perfume is beautiful and long lasting. It has good projection also. I highly recommend. Such a beautiful vanilla scent.

While it is not a bad scent, there is absolutely no lasting power. Within an hour, it was a skin scent - no projection at all.

Such an amazing gourmand perfume. It last me about six hours and is can easily be mixed with other fragrances! It’s a vanilla desert. I seen so many reviews on TikTok, so I blind bought it and am so glad I did.

I adore this perfume, sweet, comforting and buttery. You can layer this or wear on its own and it will never disappoint. Careful because it draws in a lot of attention.

Smells like a linear vanilla. I love a good gourmand, but this is not one that I would wear on its own, but I would use it to layer on my skin. The longevity is fair.
By   - ChemistScientist from Chino Hills on 7/30/2024
This is a warm and familiar scent. While it feels a bit generic, it's pleasant and I have no complaints. It wasn't unique enough to make it into my collection, but it's certainly inoffensive. Overall, it’s a nice, easygoing fragrance that’s suitable for everyday wear.

This is my favorite perfume! I get complements every time I wear it. It smells like the most delicious vanilla. Definitely worth it!

It's a meh for me and I was excited to smell like creme brulee, but nope.
By   - lawyer.comic from Las Vegas on 6/10/2024
One of my favorite perfumes by far! So soft and feminine. Sweet vanilla, but not cloying. Will purchase over and over.

Escapade Gourmande is a delicious decadent creme brulee vanilla fragrance that is just so full bottle worthy. If you love gourmand vanilla and super sweet fragrances, this is for you. It is super sweet, but in a way that you just can't get enough of it. I highly highly recommend this niche fragrance add it to your vanilla collection, you will not be disappointed if you love creme brulee and sweet vanilla scents!!!!

This perfume is the most amazing scent that I have ever come across in my life. I would sell my soul to and kiss the ground that the creator of this scent walks on. I dream about this scent. It consumes my thoughts 24/7. I am a true vanilla, edible, creamy girl. I don’t particularly like “hotel lobby” musky, smoky vanillas, so this vanilla is amazing imo. I wear Bianco Latte by Giardini di Toscani as my everyday perfume because I don’t want to blow through my EG! The price point is insane, but it is worth it. I wear this on special nights out, layer it on top of Parfums de Marley Oriana and it amplifies it so much. I will forever be an Escapade Gourmande girlie.
