Which Should You Buy?
Vanilla Diorama is a sophisticated, boozy vanilla that splits opinion. Some herald it a masterpiece of warmth and comfort, while others find its spice and rum notes too overwhelming, even bordering on offensive. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
This one's a mixed bag, to put it mildly. Some folks rave about its unique character, while others are scrubbing it off within minutes. Expect a heavy, spicy ride that leans masculine, but don't expect it to be a crowd-pleaser for everyone.
