I was reading about your incredulity over marshmallow being included in the list of notes for the Fresh Vanilla, and I just wanted to add my two cents: isn't marshmallow a plant that's been around a lot longe than the sweet? I googled "marshmallow plant" and yep, up popped the hits. I have no idea what the flowers of this thing smell like, and I don't know which Oscar intended, but...still. Benefit of the doubt?

They refuse to make one I want to wear, though. [-( The high heel peep toe ones are stunning, but I can't even stand up in them. The flats are ... well, flat. I want something in the middle.

Here, let me whisper this to you: I bought it unsniffed and got rid of it too. :d The vintage is better, though. Isn't it always? Sigh.

Only very recently they seem to be selling some even smaller travel sizes that in the past you would only have seen in coffrets. I do have 2 Guerlain bee bottle minis, they're cute too! But I'd rather have a 10-15 ml spray. Those Bvlgari 10 ml travel things are brilliant, even though they've considerably upped the price per ml. I'd buy the Aqua Allegorias that way in a second, even at full price.
