Which Should You Buy?
This one's a modern classic, a chameleon of a vanilla scent that had us all mourning its discontinuation. It's divisive, for sure; some got powdery florals, others raw cacao and suede. But if you're lucky enough to find it, prepare for a unique blend that's anything but ordinary.
Perfume Parlour's Against Me trails Louis Vuitton Contre Moi - the buttery pear-and-orange-blossom-over-vanilla idea survives, but this dupe pushes the sweetness louder and synthetic while losing the smooth, quiet refinement that made the original feel special.

Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its moderate projection and versatile blend of vanilla, citrus, and florals make it suitable for a range of occasions; it's subtle enough for office wear but elegant for dates and formal events. However, a few found the sillage lacking, suggesting a more intimate wear.
Seasons
The creamy vanilla-cacao base and sweet fruity-floral heart feel cosiest in autumn and winter, with the citrus opening keeping it wearable in spring.
Occasions
Soft, sweet and intimate - ideal for dates, casual outings and evening wear; too gentle and sugary to read as office-formal.
