Which Should You Buy?
This Goutal vanilla is divisive, splitting the room between those who adore its subtle elegance and those who find it too fleeting, too powdery, or even- gasp- like Play-Doh. For some, it's an exquisite, smoky dream; for others, it's just not hitting the mark. Definitely try before you buy.
This one's a mixed bag, with some finding a deep, rich vanilla and others dismissing it as basic, flat, and cake-like. The truth probably lies somewhere in the middle: a comforting vanilla that might be too simple for some tastes.
