Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Vanilla Diorama EDP
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.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Vanilla Diorama Extrait
Pearl Fragrances copies Dior Vanilla Diorama's boozy rum-and-cocoa vanilla signature, though the bright citrus lift and refined patchouli that give the original its restaurant-dessert nuance fade faster here.
