“I found a dupe of this scent that smells 100000% similar, cheaper, and stronger than the original! I found it at Amir Oud House Of Royal Fragrance in Dallas Texas!! they have a perfume bar and I was shocked at how similar this smells! I got it for $69 for a 50ml and $79 for a 100ml!! I texted their number and they shipped it to me right away and it was crazy how theirs is super identical!”
“The queen of all vanillas. Pure golden vanilla nectar. This does smell like sweet and creamy vanilla pods with some spices. Some may say simple but it’s the perfect high quality, long lasting vanilla. This perfume also smells clean. I got a compliment wearing this that I smelled like fresh laundry. Also a compliment saying that I smell delicious. This is an all around quality, well made and beautiful vanilla perfume. It has become my signature.”
“Amazing vanilla. I purchased both the Vanilla and Iris extraits. Both of the highest quality and I feel my search for the perfect vanilla is now over. Vanilla on my skin lasts over 14 hours. The smell if directly applied via the bottle sprayer is sweeter, as more liquid is released. Spraying from a fine travel spray tends to bring out the smokiness in the vanilla more. Well worth the money for me, given how much I have spent in the last few years chasing the perfect vanilla. Just beautiful, projects well and has great longevity on skin and clothes.”

Sillage
The clone tends to be more straightforward and less layered than the original, with reduced longevity and sillage. Guerlain's version features more refined spice accords and better projection, while the attar version reads as a more concentrated but less complex vanilla fragrance.

Sillage
The clone lacks the sophisticated vanilla orchid florality and cedar refinement of the original, leaning heavier into straightforward sweetness. Longevity and sillage are noticeably reduced compared to Guerlain's fuller, more complex projection.
