Which Should You Buy?
This is Mancera's unapologetic stab at the 'dark vanilla' trend, serving up a potent blend that some call the best of its kind. It's a divisive one, though - fans adore its deep, grown-up sweetness, while detractors find it synthetic, heavy on the oud, or simply nothing new.
A dark chocolate and vanilla gourmand with Cambodian oud and brown sugar over a tonka and benzoin base. Oakcha's take on Mancera Xplicit Vanilla, heavy, sweet and very warm.
