Vanilla Royale Sugared Patchouli I 64 Parfum vs Au Paradis Eau de Parfum
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. For patchouli lovers, it's a deep, boozy, sexy vanilla dream; for others, it's a medicinal nightmare. Definitely not a blind buy.
Au Paradis is a well-regarded match for By Kilian Straight to Heaven, with customers specifically praising how close the rum-patchouli-cedar direction lands, even if the booze note reads slightly differently.
