What wearers say
“battle of the eilish 1 dupes:1) sweet on the outside by finery is an affordable dupe but it's too pickly for my liking.then we have 2) sensual vanilla, which is not only affordable, it's probably the closest dupe to eilish 1.BUT then there's a sharp and sour cilantro/scallion note although it's not listed?THANK GOODNESS it doesn't stick around for the dry down. projection and longevity definitely performs better than eilish 1 but with so many dupes on the market it does gets tiring.i'll give it more time to see if i still like it...”
“Sugary soft vanilla with lavender. I don't get the other notes listed but I get mint. For the first couple of minutes it smells like minty lavender only on my skin so I get the car freshner comparisons but it didn't bother me. I got this because we don't have Eilish where I live and the only Lattafa retailer has been driven up the prices to insane levels. But I think I'll get Nebras anyway cause this one has poor longevity and minimal projection.Edit: Longevity has improved a lot after a month or so and it also got more creamy. Projection is still meh but it is a good fragrance for the price.”
“Good projection and long lasting for sure when sprayed on my wrist. Not sure if this has better projection and sillage than Supreme Vanilla. I like both equally. But maybe this a little more as there isn't the ink note that Supreme Vanilla has. Kept smelling my wrist because of this. Anyone know if this or Nebras has better sillage and longevity?”
