The Battle
I became aware of the fragrance through the dear Leni in a YT video. He should resemble the Herod and I wanted to start a comparison. To give you an insight MY opinion, attached a few juxtapositions:

Herod: starts much more subtle but pleasant, smoother. Tobacco from the beginning to smell out, great sweetness, not too much, vanilla in the base already perceptible at the beginning.

Divine: stronger opening and more synthetic. At the beginning little similarity to Herod, you have to give it a little time. I don't smell tobacco at first, very subtle over time. He is definitely sweeter; in the background I perceive very discreetly the clary sage, spices initially rather in the background, but come with time more to the fore

In a direct comparison, the Herod is definitely the winner. He is simply much better interwoven and individual fragrance notes are better to stand out. Starts very subtle, might like a little more "scream". Towards the end, it gets intensity though. The Divine Vanilla is also very nice when you smell it alone and not in direct comparison, because there it performs worse. He is clearly more synthetic and slightly pungent in the nose, but he has more sweetness which makes him perhaps more appealing to the ladies.

However, I think both are really great fragrances & I love wearing both. :)

Looking for the next vanilla kick....
...I'm currently madly drawn to the vanilla scent. The thanks goes out here to the Diptyque Eau Duelle EDT. Unfortunately, to the horror of my bank account, the scent made me realize that vanilla does NOT always have to be cardboard sweet & sticky, but can be smoky, herbaceous, dry, unsweet and and and.... can be. I like those pure vanilla scents - like scratching out a vanilla bean and smearing it all over yourself from head to toe. But who wants that. Would be a little disgusting ;) After the MFK Grand Soir, this quite affordable niche fragrance was allowed to move in with me & I was enchanted from the top note. Unsweet, slightly smoky, spicy, warm, pure, easy to wear & above all easy to love vanilla bomb. The scent is 100% unisex. Vanilla & benzoin is my favorite combo in perfumes right now. Find myself very comfortable with the scent as not overbearing or too spicy. Is often compared on YT with Herod, only without tobacco note. I can not judge, but for the price, there could possibly be any Parfums de Marly fan hellhörig. Same perfumer, quite similar scents and a really great fragrance

No surprise
The bar was very high, one of the most famous perfumers has created new fragrances. It is a very linear fragrance that is hardly multifaceted and almost through going smells the same from beginning to end! I find the fragrance cool, however, he is in my eyes not a must have, vanilla fans will be happy here. The fragrance I would describe as very fruity and a touch feminine. It is definitely a summer fragrance, for the hotter days. On the whole I find the perfume very good and successful only is the packaging at such a price just "SHIT"! Otherwise thumbs up for Divine Vanilla :))

Noble vintage wardrobe
You enter the apartment of a style icon, whose wardrobe consists of vintage unique pieces and countless elegant shoes of the finest quality. The walls an adventure in haptics and optics, the furnishings between Carlo Mollino and Finn Juhl.
Devine Vanilla should perhaps be called Various Vintage Vanilla and would hit the nail on the head. To vanilla and incense man mixes himself. Patchoulli supports the associations after visits of friends of individual taste. For me an absolute must for lovers of past times in the new world. Perfume is an attitude.

Don't beat about the bush ... you're more than a little brother!
Divine Vanilla?! My expectations of this fragrance were high until the bottle arrived just before Christmas. I had firmly resolved not to be influenced by the Herod comparisons on Parfumo and online.
Almost everyone who has taken a closer look at the subject of "nose flatterers" knows that the popular fragrance from Parfums de Marly has a special status in the world of fragrances.
After testing the original 2022 for the first time, I could understand many of the positive voices that found Herod to be a signature. This combination of sweetness and spiciness is really successful and definitely a great choice for all those who also like smoky notes in liquid form.
Unfortunately, this smokiness paired with dry vanilla, which gives the special kick and a reason to buy for many, bothered me a little. Even after hours of spraying it on, little changed and I knew that this facet was subliminally bothering me. In addition, I was never able to credibly perceive the cherry note mentioned by many in the composition, which I found very unfortunate, as it could add a certain freshness to the whole and reduce the heaviness.
So I left it at that for many months and denied the fragrance a place on my personal wish list.

In fall 2023, acquaintances suddenly made me aware of Divine Vanille ... a variant that was supposed to be very similar to Herod (no great surprise from the same perfumer) and yet have its own twist.
And what can I say? Essential Parfums has achieved exactly what PdM could not in the final meters. To be sweet without being overpowering in places due to the vanilla and tonka throughout the fragrance. To create a sense of fruitiness that - insofar as it was actually deeply concealed in Herod - is not overshadowed by smoky associations. In my opinion, Divine Vanille delivers an overall olfactory package that is consistently more suitable for everyday use, as it avoids criticism precisely where I unfortunately found it in the more expensive niche fragrance.

A fragrance DNA that will probably not be 0815 even after years, in this case is not a bad copy and gives a pleasant feeling on the skin after every reach into the shelf? Ultimately, that's exactly what DV is for me. I certainly don't regret buying it!

A bit sharper but very similar to Herod. Even quality wise and it's way cheaper & since Herod got reformulated this one is a no brainer imo.

A lot like Herod, but DV is a little more airy & perhaps more unisex. If that sounds good to you and you don’t have Herod, this is a steal.
