My Vanilla Garden
by Yves Rocher
My Vanilla Garden offers a soft, gentle fragrance centered on vanilla with subtle hints of blackberry and orange. It is perceived as light and uncomplicated—ideal for casual wear, particularly during autumn or winter. The opening features a refreshing burst of citrus and juicy fruit, which quickly softens into a delicate, skin-level vanilla that feels intimate and non-invasive. While the top notes are vibrant, they fade quickly, leaving behind a quiet vanilla base that lingers lightly but doesn’t project far or last long. Many users appreciate its comforting, cocooning character, noting that it evokes the warm, gentle scent of high-quality vanilla candles or refined, minimalist perfumes like Orchidée Vanille.
Pros

Cons
- −Very short longevity and minimal sillage—best for close contact or casual use
