Rating: So happy when I received this. I find this is the perfect additive for an exfoliating hand soap for “working” hands. It provides the right amount of exfoliation without being too rough.

Rating: this smells just like French vanilla I would get from Tim Hortons it’s one of my favorite scents and I definitely recommend it.
Rating: I love the smell. I have been making a solid moisturizer for the skin and its a perfect scent for it. I surely will be buying again. Thank you so much
Rating: While I initially loved this smell in the bottle, I found it very different in cp soap. I definitely prefer the ‘Vanilla Cream’ fragrance to this scent in cp soap.

Rating: Absolutely LOVE ! Used in my soy candles and it smells like vanilla cake ! Hot throw smells delicious!
Rating: This French Vanilla is my most favourite Vanilla. I used thos in bath bombs, bubbling bath Truffles. My customers are totally in love with it. I also use this to balance out my custom blends as it seems to enhance them wonderfully.
Definitely my favorite of all the Vanilla fragrances.

Rating: Very, very sweet vanilla smell. Strong and does not smell bad, but found it too sweet to mix with my other oils.

Rating: Not quite french vanilla, but more like sweet icing for cake. Doesn't really have any coconut hints like the description says. Not what I expected, but still a nice sweet scent for those who like that.

Rating: In the bottle the scent is awesome. Unfortunately, it fades in my CP soap. My soap is almost unscented one month after I made it.
By:Julie, St-Paul-De-L'île-Aux-Noix, Quebec Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 31-Aug-2014
Rating: Lovely, classic French Vanilla scent. It could be a little stronger. It works nicely in soy candles!
By:Celeste, Waterloo, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 24-Feb-2016
Rating: Love it! It's got this sweet vanilla-marshmellow smell.
By:Elizabeth, St. Hubert, Quebec Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 13-Sep-2017
Rating: Smells great. We mixed this with peppermint to make a refreshing shampoo that smells amazing. Great product value.
Rating: Not so impressed with this one on its own. Yes vanilla smell but not french vanilla. Mixed with other scents it really goes well with the amber romance.
By:Tiffany, Brantford, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 24-Aug-2011
Rating: This is the best vanilla FO that NDA sells. It's not a true vanilla (you need 10 fold or absolute for that), but enough that you know what it is. Very softly sweet aroma.
By:Louise, Hamilton, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 17-May-2015
Rating: This is a very strong vanilla scent which is great on its own but also blends well with a wide variety of other fragrances. My favorite is a 50-50 blend of this with NDA's French Lavender fragrance oil. Strong scent throw (both hot and cold) in soy candles.
Rating: I think this is my favorite so far of all the vanilla scents. Smells really wonderful. No acceleration noted in CP soap but does discolor to a very dark brown.
By:Victoria, Toronto, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 13-May-2013
Rating: Love this scent. Can be mixed with other scents to add a little softness or warmth to them. I love the vanilla scent.
By:Gisele, Halifax, Nova Scotia Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 23-Nov-2012
Rating: I have a customer who raves about this scent in my cold process soap shaped like wedges of pie, she purchases it often for gifts as well as herself.It does discolor the soap but with vanilla scent the customers like it.
Rating: Used this in white melt and pour base. Based on another reviewers suggestion I added some peppermint EO to it. OH MY....soooo nice, will be making another batch of this for sure. :)
By:Rose, Haileybury, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 15-Mar-2014
Rating: it has a sweet smell and works great in my melt and pour soaps
By:Stefanie, Stanstead, Quebec Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 14-May-2013
Rating: Nice enough smell, maybe a bit too much on the coconut side. Discolours like crazy so don't anticipate a nice white soap without a stabilizer and lots of TD.
By:Carrie-Ann, Greely, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 31-Mar-2013
Rating: Smells nice and keeps well in M&P soaps. It's a bit on the sweet side, but it has a bit of a musky undertone too. It doesn't smell like real french vanilla, but it's a great smell nonetheless.
By:John, London, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 07-Aug-2012
Rating: It smells fake and too sweet. I have tried using this in soy candles three times now and every time, adding more and more, it has not been strong enough. I would not re-purchase.
Rating: Delicious, but it doesn't have that nice natural vanilla scent that I expected. It smells like cream soda, which is how I am going to market it, because it. And I definitely don't smell the coconut that is supposed to be in it.
By:Kayla, Calgary, Alberta Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 13-Apr-2010
Rating: Very nice scent, but not strong enough for soy wax. I had to use 3 times the amount I would normally use, and the throw is still weak. Maybe nice in soaps and creams though.
Rating: Not as natural as I would have liked...was hoping for a more vanilla extract scent, but still very appealing!
By:Kia, Montreal, Quebec Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 08-Mar-2010
Rating: I LOVE THIS!!!! YUMMY!!! so good you almost want to eat it!
By:Stephanie, Toronto, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 24-Aug-2010
Rating: I used this scent in just regular melt and pour. I didn't realize it would turn the soap dark brown. Next time I'm hoping to buy the vanilla stabelizing soap. Customers luv this scent. It works well in melt and pour and the soy wax for candles
Rating: This scent is a really good seller. Works well in cp, turns it a dark fudge brown colour and is wonderful in bath melts. A little does go a long way!
Rating: I don't like this scent on it's own, but it smells fantastic when mixed with peppermint essential oil. I also found that it darkens cp soap, but it does not seem to accelerate trace.
By:Pam, Redbridge, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 07-Dec-2007
Rating: Smells very true and discolours to very dark brown in CP soap.
By:Ashley, Marathon, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 06-Jan-2009
Rating: I use this in my soaps it just smells great I also use the maple as well couldn't choose just one.
By:Mark, Sydney, Nova Scotia Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 05-Dec-2008
Rating: I like this vanilla. It's not quite as rich and sensuous as I'd hoped but very nice. I used lots of cocoa butter in the soap and that enhanced the scent. My kids' favourite soap.
By:Sonya, Hubley, Nova Scotia Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 24-Nov-2008
Rating: Just a quick update...made cp soap with this sent four weeks ago. I used 2.5 oz to scent 4 pounds of soap. It did not acelerate trace, and did not discolour immediately. I knew it would discolour at some point, so I used 2 Tbsp. of titanium dioxide to try and combat the depth of brown, scored the top with a fork so that it would look like cake. Now that it's fully cured, it's a medium shade of brown...a cooler shade, not warm. I've called it Vanilla Fudge as it suits the scent and the appearance. I will try more titanium dioxide next time and see if I can't lighten it further. Smells delicious....good enough to eat!

Rating: I haven't tried this scent in cp or hp soap yet, so can't comment on coloring or acceleration of trace, but the aroma out of the bottle reminds me of homemade vanilla icecream; the kind that is made with an egg custard base. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Can't wait to smell it in soap!!

Rating: Warm, buttery and absolutely delicious, French Vanilla sells well and has a great scent throw in soaps and lotions alike. A little goes a long way with this scent, and the scent lingers gently.
By:Nicole, Windsor, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 05-May-2008
Rating: Very nice, warm, buttery vanilla...just what I was hoping for! Combines very well with Lavender EO.
Rating: This fragrance is so warm and delicious, it's what people have come to expect vanilla to smell like, mixes well with.....everything.
By:Colette, Alliston, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 22-Mar-2007
Rating: Smells like typical vanilla frangrace. Warm and very sweet. Smells like typical vanilla candles.
By:Nelly, Montreal, Quebec Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 17-Dec-2006
Rating: This is a beautiful vanilla!! It turns CP soap dark brown (as most vanillas do) but the discoloration is worth it! I've been searching for a worthy vanilla for a long time, and I found it it this fragrance.
By:Carolyn, Montreal, Quebec Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 23-Feb-2007
Rating: A rich, lasting scent. A personal favourite.. Sweet and warm... smells just like a Tim Hortons Cappucino!
Rating: Very strong and sweet. Perhaps a little too candyish for me but people seem to really like it in soap!
By:Alexandra, Nanaimo, British Columbia Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 03-Mar-2007
Rating: French Vanilla is fabulous, and has a delicate scent that lasts all day long.
