Which Should You Buy?
A brown sugar-amber vanilla with a boozy, musky undercurrent, Vanilla | 28 is more mature and sultry than sweet cupcake. Often hyped as a layering staple, it shines in cold weather and intimate settings, but its projection is moderate and some may crave more vanilla or longevity.
Nebula II is a rich, gourmand dream for those who adore creamy almond and spicy vanilla. While some find the almond a tad bitter, most agree this is a delicious, long-lasting scent that's perfect for cosy indulgence.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Vanilla | 28 thrives in cooler fall and winter weather due to its heavy amber, brown sugar, and rich vanilla, which can feel cloying or overwhelming in heat. The boozy, cozy warmth also lends itself to transitional chilly spring evenings, but it’s generally too intense and syrupy for summer wear.
Occasions
The intimate projection and sweet, sensual vibe make this ideal for date nights and cozy casual settings. Its syrupy depth can be distracting in an office or formal context, and it's far too rich for sporty or high-activity scenarios.
Seasons
Occasions
Its strong sillage and gourmand profile make it less suitable for office wear, but its warmth and creaminess are ideal for dates and casual evenings. It could be dressed up for formal events that welcome a bold, sweet scent.
