The Spice & Black Vanilla Eau De Toilette (100ml) from Cremo, priced at £30.95, has garnered high praise from shoppers who say it draws compliments and rivals more expensive colognes. The fragrance blends black vanilla with cardamom for a warm, sweet, and woody scent designed for everyday wear.
Shopper Reviews Highlight Compliments and Longevity
One reviewer said: "I absolutely love this scent and highly recommend fellas! Great all year round cologne. If you've never gotten compliments on your fragrance, Thank me later!" Another wrote: "I have bought this three times already. I buy a lot of high end colognes, but this right here has to be put up there with those for sure. Long lasting, smells amazing and, for the price, this is a must have, especially in the fall and winter."
Another commented: "I get compliments left and right about how good I smell. It's long lasting also, I can still smell it a day later before my shower. Highly recommend."
Product Details and Usage Tips
The fragrance is described as a modern, indulgent scent with an aromatic base and a hint of spice. The brand recommends applying it after showering while the skin is still slightly damp, spraying a small amount onto the inside of the wrists to bring out the scent.
For those who like to layer fragrances, the same Spice & Black Vanilla scent is available as a body wash for £12.95, which creates a rich lather and leaves the same warm fragrance, making it suitable for daily shower routines. It is also said to be balanced for all seasons, as it 'delivers the just-right formula'.
Mixed Feedback and Alternatives
While most reviews were positive, one customer reported a faulty sprayer: "Lovely and affordable cologne that turns heads. Unfortunately, I got the spice and black vanilla 100ml bottle, which stopped spraying mid-bottle. I don't know what caused the cologne (to stop) spraying... aside from the broken/faulty cologne sprayer, the product is worth every penny."
For a more expensive option, the Chanel Pour Monsieur Eau De Toilette Spray (100ml) is available for £112 at Boots, and the Armani Stronger With You Eau De Toilette (50ml) is priced at £53.60, down from £67, on LookFantastic. The Spice & Black Vanilla Eau De Toilette (100ml) and Spice & Black Vanilla Body Wash are available from Cremo.
