Smelt this in Geneva Airport last month alongside the other YSL private lines and was blown away. Picked up a bottle online as soon as I got home. Have worn it a couple times and can confidently say this is one of the best ambery vanilla scents with great performance. My nose picks up the base notes straight away of suede and vanilla

      I want something a little dark and spicy and the popular recs right now are this, Vanilla Diorama, Black Tie and Lune Feline. I want to try Fire at Will too! My absolute favourite vanilla is Un Bois Vanille by Serge Lutens which is a really warm and rich vanilla.
