The fragrance is widely respected as a non-traditional vanilla; enthusiasts often highlight it as a "dry" or "savory" take on the note that avoids the typical sweetness of the genre.
Performance is a point of discussion; while the longevity is generally considered reliable—lasting throughout a workday for many—the sillage is noted to be intimate, quickly settling into a persistent but close-range "scent bubble."
It is frequently compared to other amber-heavy works like L'Artisan's L'Eau d'Ambre, though users often find Felanilla more complex due to the distinct inclusion of iris and hay.
The scent is overwhelmingly preferred for cooler weather, with the community favoring it for fall and winter evenings or leisure time due to its "cozy" and "enveloping" character.
While some Pierre Guillaume releases are noted for being fleeting, Felanilla is often cited as one of the more substantial performers in the house’s lineup.
