Which Should You Buy?
Casmir is a seriously polarising scent: a spiced peach vanilla bomb that some find comforting and luxurious, while others get synthetic fruit, plastic, or even nail polish remover. If you're after a warm, oriental vanilla with a tropical twist, track down a vintage bottle, as the modern juice is apparently a shadow of its former self.
Divisive yet iconic, Coty's Vanilla Fields is a 90s classic that inspires fierce loyalty and strong aversion. It's a sweet, powdery vanilla, but don't expect a modern gourmand. This is vanilla with an attitude, often described as 'marmite' in a bottle.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its potent projection and sweet, warm profile make it less suitable for the office, where it could be overwhelming. However, for dates and casual wear, especially in cooler weather, it provides a comforting and sensual aura. For formal events, it might be a bit too heavy unless applied sparingly.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its moderate sillage and comforting vanilla make it suitable for casual wear and dates, but the strong powdery and woody elements may be too much for formal events or the office. Many reviews suggest it's a 'wear-around-the-house' scent or for snuggling, highlighting its casual appeal.
