Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Vanillary EDP
This one is as divisive as it gets. On one hand, a creamy, buttery vanilla with a sensual jasmine edge. On the other, a rancid, urine-soaked nightmare. You either love its unique, raw character, or you're reaching for the nearest scrub brush. Try before you buy, unless you fancy a gamble.
Statement
Our Verdict - Black Sugar EDT
A divisive scent where opinion is split whether it's a 'clean gourmand' or a floral soap. Unfortunately, there's broad consensus that it vanishes faster than a free sample table, making it a frustratingly fleeting experience.

Season and Occasion Fit

Vanillary

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent projection and unique, sometimes challenging, scent profile make Vanillary a poor choice for the office. However, its bold and sensual nature is well-suited for dates or casual wear, leaving a memorable impression if it aligns with your skin chemistry and preference.

Black Sugar

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn
Also Works:
Spring Winter

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its intimate sillage and short longevity make it perfect for close-quarters like the office or casual wear where you don't want to overwhelm. The sweet, clean profile is generally well-received, though it's too fleeting for formal events or sports.
