Born in Roma Extradose Donna Eau de Parfum vs Vanilla on the Beach Eau de Parfum
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
A sweet, boozy vanilla dream: Extradose is a crowd-pleasing, date-night beast. While some find it a bit too 'designer' or generic, its strong performance and delicious warm notes make it a solid choice for those who love a feminine, head-turning scent. Not for the faint of heart, or those prone to headaches.
Don't let the name fool you - this ain't your usual sweet, summery vanilla. It's a divisive brew of boozy fruit, patchouli, and spice, with some finding it a rich, unique offering whilst others are left scratching their heads, asking 'where's the vanilla at?'

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Given its strong boozy, spicy, and amber accords, this fragrance is best suited for evenings and cooler weather. Whilst some might brave it for a casual outing, it truly shines in more intimate or formal settings where its bold character can linger without overwhelming. It's too heavy for an office or sport.
