Vanilla Skin - Travel Size

This perfume is by far my favorite scent. The vanilla is pure and easy on the nose. This was the travel size but it lasts at least a month or so for me since I don’t wear perfume on the regular. Definitely a pricey perfume but worth the money. It doesn’t give my husband a headache which is a huge plus. The bottle came intact and well made.

I love this perfume! I had used the body spray from PHLUR in Vanilla Skin. Liked the scent but it did not last long. Debated because of price to buy the $99 size or the $139 size of the perfume. After reading reviews for both. I chose the $139.00. Totaly worth it. The size is very large and the perfume scent LASTS!!! It smells sooooo good!!!

10/10. the most beautiful strawberry fragrance. it’s so good!! i love anything by phlur. packaging is so cute!! i highly recommend this perfume!

Scent is a bit strong but is not unpleasant, if that’s what you’re going for. Scent notes an under smell of tobacco. Like strawberry scented pipe tobacco. Again, I don’t think it’s unpleasant it’s simply a bit too masculine for my taste. I really think this product can be marketed as a unisex cologne. I probably will wear it occasionally but not often because it’s strong for my taste.

I’ve been wearing Phlur Vanilla Skin Eau de Parfum regularly, and it has quickly become one of my favorite “comfort scents.” On my skin it’s a creamy vanilla with a soft touch of spice and woodiness — warm, cozy, and never cloying. I use it as part of a routine: layering the parfum with Heavy Cream body mist, Vanilla Skin body mist, and the Vanilla Skin deodorant. Most days I also pair it with Beekman 1802 Vanilla Absolute soap and lotion as my base. Even with all that layering, the fragrance stays soft and intimate. It doesn’t project loudly, which I appreciate — I like to smell it on myself without worrying it’s overwhelming others. Longevity is solid, especially with the layering. The Heavy Cream base lingers and blends well with the Vanilla Skin notes, and I can still catch whiffs as my body warms up throughout the day. I usually refresh with a light spritz on my wrists in the afternoon, more because I enjoy the ritual than because the scent disappears. I’ve received a few compliments, but it’s more of a “come closer” fragrance than one that fills a room. If you want a bold, sugary vanilla, this might not be it. But if you like a subtle, skin-hugging vanilla that feels personal and warm, it’s perfect. Bottom line: Vanilla Skin EDP is versatile, soft, and comforting. It layers beautifully with other products, lasts well, and offers a cozy vanilla aura that feels elegant and wearable every day.

… and I’ve learned my lesson! I kept seeing the ads on Facebook and Instagram about Phlur fragrances and Body Mists. I know better! I created SEO content for major brands for a decade and am one of the jerks who used all those fancy key words and inserted them into ads just like the ones Phlur uses to suck gullible consumers like myself, into buying something. Even worse, I’m a fragrance snob who usually sticks to what I know works with my body chemistry. But nope, I ignored my own gut telling me this was NOT going to be a fun and fruity scent. Initially I ordered the Mango and another fruit scent via Phlur’s site after caving in to the ads. Then I read through more of the comments and kicked myself. A LOT of people said to order off Amazon if ordering Phlur scents because when ordered straight off the brand site, orders were never received or were coming from Scandinavia and Europe in general. I ordered this scent, Strawberry Letter, via Amazon as so many suggested doing. Received it in two days (still haven’t received order directly from Phlur). Upon smelling the perfume in the bottle itself, it was a bit acrid smelling (reminded me of the sharp, unpleasant smell that Glossier’s “You” has) and then a super sharp cheap strawberry wine scent hit me. Yuck. TLDR … I guess my body chemistry laughed and said, “So you decided to FA & you FO …” It smells like Baccarat Rouge 540 which I loathe! It smells like cheap men’s cologne and curry on me. This Phlur Strawberry Letter stuff smells like the Baccarat fragrance but with sour-milk-swamp-booty notes that dry down to stale- curry-and-old-man-in-the-Deep-South. Save yourself some disappointment and a potential headache (like the one I’ve got) and go to Sephora - the only retail store that carries Phlur- and smell/sample this stuff BEFORE you buy it. I am going to return this and pray that the “Heavy Cream” scent (also Phlur) that I blind-bought on Amazon and gets here Friday, smells better, and that I receive the other stuff ordered from Phlur directly and that it doesn’t make me shed massive tears of fragrance-regret.

Honestly was pretty disappointed, it doesn’t give off strawberries in my opinion. I was looking for a new strawberry scent but this one was not the right one for me. It smells good but doesn’t really give me that fruity scent I was hoping. My bath and body works strawberry poundcake scent works better. I’m giving it a 3 since the packaging is pretty cute and smells nice.

My favorite perfume right now. Smells so good, lasts almost all day. I get so many compliments on it. I’ve been using the perfume and body spray for a little over a year and I love it. Definitely recommend.
