The initial scent out of the bottle is so strong and overpowering. It gave me a bit of a headache. It is strong, old smelling, and not soothing, warm or seductive. The cold throw is overpowering as well. I keep the 464 soy candles stored away because I simply can't stand the cold throw. However, this fragrance gives a lovely hot throw, fills the room. If gifting or selling, definitely recommend using a lid with this fragrance as the cold throw is unappealing.

I purchased the 8oz bottle and fell in love instantly. The cold and hot throw was the best i've come across and had no complaints. But, recently I purchased the 16oz bottle and something was just... off. The smell was more like overly sweet candy- almost like black licorice. I am very disappointed considering I can't use the FO for anything that I planned. I've read some other reviews and it seems that it is common for scents to change when in different amounts. Disappointing because I am stuck buying the 8oz bottles which means I miss out on the savings :(

I love this vanilla - I use it to mix with some of the other scents that I find a bit too strong like whiskey. Great HT at 12%.

The scent may be overpowering to some, but most of the comments from my customers are extremely positive! Has a great CT and HT. Fills the room with the scent even when unlit! I used about 1.5oz of the scent per pound of wax and it turned out AMAZING. Definitely recommend if your on the fence.

Such a beautiful, soft, warm, sweet scent. Its not overpowering sweet, it has just the right amount of Vanilla. I am very pleased with this oil. Thank you!

Im an amateur, and Im not entirely familiar with what true vanilla smells like, however this reminded me of a very sweet cake. Everyone loves it, and I do too... and I will say it is strong enough to have earned the moniker "very". I used a 1oz bottle and my roommate thought I took up baking, and was disappointed there was no cake. I dont understand it, but I do understand it caused a very positive reaction, and will be getting more

This scent is amazing! Our son was getting married last November and our daughter-in-law wanted me to make small candles in tins to give away as favors. We decided on the Very Vanilla. It did not disappoint...the best vanilla scent I have ever used! We lit a couple at the wedding at the favor table so everyone remembered to grab a candle on their way out. The smell completely filled the venue place. I had my daughter-in-law tell me this last week that a friend of hers just lit her candle from wedding and loved it so much and said “best candle she’s ever smelled”, and wanted to know if I would make her more. I ordered more scent and just made her 7 new larger jars. So happy they turned out so well for the wedding. I wanted everything to be perfect, and they were.

One of best sellers in my soy candles. Everyone loves this fragrance. Used with the 464 soy wax. Burn is seamless and has both great hot and cold throw.

Use this by itself and also when making my own scents. The customers love it. Only problem is over time when used with 464 it will turn the wax a light yellow color but I have never had a customer say anything about it.

I make pillar candles and many of them are black. Unfortunately very vanilla does not cover the smell of black dye very well, it actually seems to make it worse.. it's not a nice combination. I have had to take it off from our list of available fragrances which is too bad. I love vanilla, just not this one.
