Which Should You Buy?
This isn't your average fluffy vanilla. December Vanilla is a rich, boozy, and deeply divisive scent that truly shines after some maceration. Prepare for an intense patchouli and rum opening; those who wait will be rewarded with a complex, sophisticated vanilla.
This one's a proper dark horse, a creamy coconut dream that’s more sophisticated than your average tropical fare. Underrated, long-lasting, and a genuine compliment-getter that'll get people asking what you're wearing.
