Blossom Perfumery 496 Vanilla 28 is an Eau de Parfum. 496 Vanilla 28 opens with Jasmine and Vanilla, settles into a heart of Brown Sugar and Tonka Bean, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Patchouli, and Amberwood. Blossom Perfumery's 496 Vanilla 28 carries an Acquired verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

496 goes straight for Le Labo Vanille 28's gourmand vanilla-tonka signature, matching the sweetness well but missing the original's smoky, almost savoury tobacco-leather undertone that keeps it from tipping into pure dessert territory.

About

496 delivers the warm vanilla-orchid-and-brown-sugar opening that made Le Labo's Vanille 28 a favourite among vanilla lovers who wanted something less powdery than the usual gourmand. The tonka-amber heart is a fair match for the original's cosy sweetness. What's thinner here is the depth: Vanille 28 has a smoky, slightly boozy tobacco-leather facet running underneath the vanilla that keeps it grounded and sophisticated rather than simply sweet, and 496's amberwood-musk base doesn't quite reach that complexity - it stays comfortably sweet throughout instead of developing that darker edge. Longevity is moderate rather than the original's noted staying power. A solid, wearable vanilla for the price, just less layered.
