"I really like vanilla perfumes -- Covet has that vibe -- but couldn't wear them when I was engaged," she says. "I just broke up with my fiance. He didn't like me wearing Angel by Thierry Mugler Perfume, so I may go back to that." She touches up her pink lipstick in the mirror. "He was so controlling."
"This smells like ... you know when you work out all day and have that really bad scent? Not exactly that, but maybe something more pungent."
— Suzanne on Sarah Jessica Parker Covet and Joe on Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male, respectively, from What It Takes To Drive Them Wild, an article in The National Post in which reporters plant themselves in the rest rooms of a Toronto nightclub and ask random passersby to test perfumes.

A New Opinion About The Body Shop: Vanilla, Eau De Toilette
I very rarely go in The Body Shop. I used to back in the day when it was all the rage but now there's so much competition for them that to me the place is outdated and overpriced and although I love the concept and what they do I much prefer lush and ranges that are available in Boots at sometimes a lot less than The Body Shop.
However, I was talking to my best mate Pink who is a mind of information who was enquiring if I was still single (I was worried she was on the turn or summat lol). Anyway she had a solution she reckoned. I thought oh know she ain't gonna try fix em up like I'm a saddo is she?! No. Her solution was to get me to go to The Body Shop and spend me pennies on this stuff.
She has too much time on her hands and reads many magazines and in one there was an article about Vanilla in general. There was a list of products to buy and suggestions on how to use it and all that sort of thing. In the article this Eau De Toilette was heavily featured. It spoke about it's aphrodisiac effect on men. Basically it's meant to give the man the horn and be attracted to you.
Well I'm a single girl and I'm very much the kind of person that will give anything a go so unbeknown to Pink off I went on her advise and I treated myself to the whole range, I though in for a penny in for a pound!
The Packaging....
30ml size, yellow/gold glass bottle, silver push down sprayer and a little slide n safety cap that slides on securely. White writing on it with a white flower. Nothing special but it's ok
The Fragrance....
Bergamot, Coconut, Apricot, Strawberry, Jasmine, Lily of the Valley, Rose, Vanilla, Sandalwood, Amber and Musk.
