Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Vanilla | 28 Eau de Toilette

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.

Our Verdict - December Vanilla Eau de Parfum

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.

Season and Occasion Fit

Vanilla | 28 Eau de Toilette

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

Also Works:

Spring

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

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Formal

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.

December Vanilla Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

Given its strong sillage and long-lasting nature, December Vanilla is too intense for office wear. Its deep, sensual profile makes it perfect for date nights and impressive for formal evening events. While a bit much for everyday casual wear, it suits cooler weather outings.
