Chloé's Vanilla Planifolia is a divisive green vanilla, an elegant and fresh take that steers clear of gourmand sweetness. Some find it a beautifully unique, natural aroma, while others can't get past a strange "green banana" or even "fishy" opening. Definitely not one for a blind buy.

If your primary goal is to smell like an expensive vanilla-almond cupcake, then this is your jam. It's a sweet, playful scent, though perhaps a tad too youthful for some palates. Don't go expecting cashmere sophistication.
