Gleam Perfume Vanilla Crush is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Luca Gritti. Vanilla Crush opens with Pear Blossom, settles into a heart of Iris and Vanilla, and dries down to a base of Musk and Caramel. Gleam Perfume's Vanilla Crush carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a proper sugar rush in a bottle, but don't expect anything groundbreaking. It's a sweet, musky vanilla that's charmingly simple, though some will find it too basic or, heaven forbid, headache-inducing. It's not a flex, it's a cuddle.

About

Vanilla Crush opens with the delicate, almost ethereal whisper of pear blossom, quickly giving way to the star of the show: a rich, creamy vanilla. Beneath this sugary sweetness, a soft, powdery iris emerges, providing a gentle counterpoint that prevents it from becoming cloyingly sweet. The dry down settles into a warm, inviting embrace of sweet caramel and a clean, skin-like musk that lingers enticingly.
