Which Should You Buy?
Sublime Vanille smells divine - a clean, airy vanilla with a zesty lemon kick. Sadly, it's also the poster child for abysmal luxury performance; don't expect it to last longer than a celebrity marriage. Prepare to reapply endlessly or embrace its fleeting beauty.
Splendid Vanille chases Creed Sublime Vanille's citrus-to-gourmand-vanilla arc. The bergamot-lemon opening lands close, but the vanilla-tonka heart and musk base fade faster and read sweeter, less refined than Creed's original.
