Hello,
Since I particularly love wild pepper, I had it tasted... I then referred an acquaintance for his purchase. I thought the referral code was useful but no, ultimately nothing! Moreover, I saw on the site that there is a gift with every shipment!! Aside from the David vanilla magnet (as a gift it's a bit much!) I haven't seen any color. But the pepper is always appreciated!

Hello,
The referral allows the referrer to receive a gift code 5 days after their godchild receives their order.
The magnet is our current gift, it's useful. We can never satisfy everyone; when we offer bags, we can get the same type of feedback.
The simplest thing is to stop the gifts, right?
2/5 when we prepare your order quickly and with great care, it's a shame.
You should try our competition please. Compare the price of the wild pepper you order with each order and the gifts.
If the gift is nicer but the pepper is 50% more expensive, we can do it but we are more reasonable with our selling prices.
Best regards,
David

Impeccable products and customer service!!! Go for it with your eyes closed. 2 orders made and received...TOP! I only gave 4 stars because I find it a shame that there is no free home delivery for orders around €100.

My package arrived torn but nothing was missing from the order. It's not the fault of the merchant site but the carrier. I will order again from David Vanille, without any problem;

Order well received! The box was poorly sealed, the tape was sticking to part of the box. At the moment, I haven't used the products yet and can't give my opinion. But I can say that there were intense smells of spices around this box.

Nice and the price is attractive, but the wild pepper from Madagascar that I bought smells good but has no taste, whereas I am from Reunion and I eat it often and it has a pronounced taste, I am a bit disappointed and I haven't had time to taste all the things from my order yet, we'll see.

Hello,
We sell several tons per year of our wild pepper harvests and know this product very well. We offer 3 qualities: black, white, red. If our wild pepper has no taste, it might be due to covid :-)
Or ja konet,
Looking forward,
David

Hello
Disappointed after receiving the vanilla pods
The pods were drier, thus less aromatic
Compared to those I usually get
They are plump and fatty. They are packaged in special tubes for vanilla pods and for the same price.
I had to package them in test tubes for vanilla pods with a bit of rum away from light to see over time
Mrs. J.Florence
To my great regret

It's been a little over a year since I ordered from the David vanilla site. Usually, I am always satisfied. This time I ordered bourbon vanilla pods. They are dry and last... I am disappointed with the quality. I usually take other varieties that are oily and larger. Otherwise, the shipping is fast, we are notified by SMS as soon as the order is shipped.

Hello Julie,
The red vanilla is a dry vanilla as explained on the product sheet. It is the only vanilla that our perfumer and aromatic clients buy.
You will find all the explanations regarding this quality by rereading the product sheet:

Thank you in advance for your understanding,
Have a great day,
Looking forward,
David Vanille

The explanations about the products are detailed and clear, the navigation did not seem complicated to me (mobile navigation), in the dropdown menu, in the category "Spices and Aromatics", possibly add subcategories like "condiments, herbs, and spices" to facilitate the search if you want something specific, it is not necessary to scroll through all the items in the category "Spices and Aromatics", this is a suggestion not a criticism ;-)

After receiving pods with mold on them, I contacted customer service. I was told that it happens and that I just need to clean the pods with a cloth soaked in a little alcohol. So that's what I did, then I stored my pods in a glass tube to prevent this from happening again. Strangely, 3 weeks later my pods are completely moldy as you will see, and no refund is possible because I quote: "if you do not return the pods in their bag we cannot do anything." Who keeps a bag with mold thinking it will be used to get a refund?? No commercial gesture, this is really not normal. I do not recommend.

Hello, You received your order at the beginning of December and did not follow our conservation advice written on the label but also on our thank you notes. Fanny offered you a return but that did not suit you. Our customer service responded very quickly to your requests. We cannot be held responsible for poor conservation. See our advice again here: https://www.davidvanille.com/fr/content/category/3-tout-sur-la-vanille Thank you for your understanding, David Vanille

I received the order very quickly, well-filled vanilla, fatty while it is announced dry. Nice pod but however without taste, I have tried to extract the grains, infuse the pod, blend it into powder, but even using 3 pods, the flavor of the vanilla is only very slightly present. Basically, the pod is well filled but without any flavor or smell. They are starting to frost, as indicated on the site but still no taste. Well, apart from that the almond powder is good and the spices are strong. But I am still dissatisfied with the vanilla pods.

Hello, my first order was great. I ordered Cream of the Tribes. I had my second order of Gourmet Vanilla Pods. I tried to contact you but received no response because the second order of Gourmet Vanilla was not great, very disappointed, too thin, dry, not much grain, out of 10 pods, only 5 were good, the others had almost no vanilla inside.

Good quality and good value for money. Just, I was promised 10 vanilla pods as a gift, but like Sister Anne, I see nothing coming!!! Otherwise, delivered quickly and well packaged. Kisses to all the food lovers.

I have been a customer since 2021, this time I ordered the offer of 100 Ugandan vanilla pods size M with 10 pods as a gift, unfortunately in my 10 gifted vanilla pods, 3 had mold, I think due to poor curing. The others also have this curing problem, I haven't opened the 100 pack yet, I hope they will be of better quality.

A bit disappointed receiving the second order because the little gift of 10 vanilla pods was offered if the order exceeded 29 euros, but I made 2 orders on the same day, although not at the same time, but a total of 67.12 euros.
Maybe I should have ordered mustard! But I won't hold it against them.

Mixed review during my last order. There are no more free spice bags, which is a shame because it was beautiful, the price of some spices has risen enormously. But fortunately, not the vanilla, which is still excellent.
