    What do reviewers say about Vanilla Aura and Material?

    Most vanillas announce themselves. This one waits for you to come to it. The citrus keeps things clean at the opening, but by the heart, caramel and chocolate have settled in and they aren't leaving.Vanilla Aura
    This is the fragrance for people who want to smell expensive without announcing it. The opening is confrontational in the best way, dense elemi, patchouli that lingers like wet earth, a green-earth.Material
