Which Should You Buy?
A brown sugar-amber vanilla with a boozy, musky undercurrent, Vanilla | 28 is more mature and sultry than sweet cupcake. Often hyped as a layering staple, it shines in cold weather and intimate settings, but its projection is moderate and some may crave more vanilla or longevity.
This is a seriously under-the-radar gourmand that'll have you smelling like a freshly baked dream. If you know, you know - and you'll want to keep this secret safe.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Vanilla | 28 thrives in cooler fall and winter weather due to its heavy amber, brown sugar, and rich vanilla, which can feel cloying or overwhelming in heat. The boozy, cozy warmth also lends itself to transitional chilly spring evenings, but it’s generally too intense and syrupy for summer wear.
Occasions
The intimate projection and sweet, sensual vibe make this ideal for date nights and cozy casual settings. Its syrupy depth can be distracting in an office or formal context, and it's far too rich for sporty or high-activity scenarios.
Seasons
A winter perfume through and through - made for cold, dark months.
Occasions
The rich, warm, and gourmand nature of Biscuit Souple makes it perfect for intimate date nights and casual autumn outings. Its strong presence would be too much for an office setting or active sport, but it could work for more relaxed formal events.
