The hype got me, and in the end I bought it. Now, I’ve never smelled the Guerlain vanilla this is supposed to be duping, but I am very skeptical that a niche luxury fragrance can be duped for such a low price.
So, I’m not speaking about the perfume as a dupe, I’m speaking about this perfume as a perfume I blind bought (after swearing to never do it again!).
Well, I’m surprised. While Vanilla Voyage for me was quite the fiasco, the first thing I’ve said after spraying this was “oh”. It’s deep, it’s rich, it’s sweet, it’s dark, it’s potent and extremely long lasting. I can definitely smell the fixative part of the perfume that reminds me of Narciso Rodrigo La Peau Nue.
For the price I think it’s a lovely vanilla, just spray with caution, you don’t want to intoxicate people around you.
Strong sillage too, and the sillage is really where this perfume shines at least to my nose.
