Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Royal Vanilla Eau de Parfum

If only Mancera had been brave enough to make a vanilla beast without the Rose-Vanilla DNA, rather than playing it safe with another crowd-pleaser that splits opinion. The brutal opening makes this a risky blind buy.

Our Verdict - Vanilla Fields Eau de Parfum

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.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:

Date

Also Works:

Casual

Its beastly performance, especially the initial harshness, makes it unsuitable for professional settings. However, its bold and sweet profile is perfect for making an impression on a date or for cooler weather casual outings, though perhaps a bit much for formal events.

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Office

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.
