This one's a proper crowd-pleaser, delivering exactly what it promises: a sweet, jammy rose wrapped in vanilla. While some find its simplicity boring or even cloying, for many, it's a love-at-first-sniff affair, earning compliments and becoming an easy-reach signature scent. Just don't expect groundbreaking complexity.

Vanilla Rose follows Mancera Rose Vanille's lemon-rose opening and sugared vanilla heart at 35% extrait, delivering the original's warm, comforting rose-vanilla signature convincingly. It's a solid match for the £195 original's core DNA, if a little less complex in the cedarwood-musk finish.
