Which Should You Buy?
A truly divisive vanilla that either hits the mark for a 'skin but better' woody vanilla or totally misses it, smelling like bitter pencil shavings or cat litter. If you're after a grown-up, non-cloying vanilla with a spicy kick, this might be your jam - just be ready for the initial pepper blast.
Flavoury chases Lush Vanillary's buttery jasmine-and-vanilla signature. It captures the cosy, creamy character on a budget, though it reads sweeter and simpler, missing some of the caramelised, full-bodied warmth that makes the cult original so distinctive.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its warm, sensual, and projecting nature makes it excellent for dates or casual wear, especially in cooler weather. While some find it subtle enough for the office, its strong sillage and 'sexy' vibe might be a bit much for professional settings. It's definitely not one for the gym.
Seasons
The creamy vanilla and warm amber are cosiest in autumn, winter and cooler spring, leaning heavy in summer heat.
