Which Should You Buy?
Prepare for a rich, smoky vanilla, but brace yourself for the price tag. Vanille Planifolia is a divisive scent: some hail it as the ultimate vanilla, others as wildly overpriced and overhyped. Sample first, unless you've money to burn.
This cult classic is pure liquid gold - stunningly rich, resinous, and deeply warm. The amber and myrrh shine through, making it feel like a cherished secret. If you can still get your hands on it, don't hesitate; this is a truly majestic and much-missed masterpiece.
