Vanille Diabolique

A very uplifting and luxurious vanilla fragrance! For all the vanilla lovers out there! Opening: You feel the strong and translucent vanilla enveloped in a slight alcoholic aroma, rum comes to mind. Vanilla in here is a little dusty, gives an impression of Bourbon vanilla in desserts! Heart: Here comes the Cuba Libre cocktail reference. Coca Cola vibes is strong with this one. Ultra refreshing and posh feel. If you love Rum, Coca Cola and Vanilla, this is the scent for you! A gourmand that can fit in line even with a non-gourmand lovers' taste! Base: In the deep dry down you get vanilla, very prominent and rich, corresponding with cinnamon that gives the fragrance a dry and cosy feel. It will be great for the upcoming Christmas holidays. It brings out festive memories. In the end alongside the vanilla, you get warm sandalwood and beautiful amber notes. The wearing experience is opulent, spicy and very, very sexy. It will fit great on a man, as well as a woman. Longevity and sillage are wonderful. 8-10 hours easy as it is an extract it definitely acts like one. Sillage is great as the scent lingers in the air around you and stays for hours in the room after you leave it! Thumbs up from me. And a strong recommendation!

I am so happy and fortunate to have come across this wonderful fragrance. It has become one of my best discoveries of 2024. For the opening, Coca-Cola as a note. Fascinating. It has that cola fizziness that invokes my childhood memories, then there's the sweet, juciness of orange, and pink pepper to add some spiciness. The middle has a lot going on, such as the complexity and smoothness of rum, the bitterness of dark chocolate, along with cinnamon for its piquant alure, and cardamom for its bittersweet prowess. Finally, we come to the base notes. There's the cozy, halcyon goodness of vanilla, the mellowness of amber, and topping it off, the rich, smoothness of sandalwood. This is truly a joyful and sensual fragrance. Longevity and projection are paramount, which becomes a skin scent afterward. Although it shines during the colder seasons, it's almost multi-seasonal (except for the summer), and it can be worn either dressed up or down. I'm going to let this macerate for a while, but I know in time that it will become more outstanding. Kudos to Mladen for creating such a phenomenal fragrance.

Easily one of my favorite vanilla releases this year! The perfume starts with authentic fizzy coca cola, boozy rum and a slice of caramelized crispy dried orange for added freshness. As the top notes gradually fade, the scent becomes a bit powdery as in cocoa powder and slightly spicy from the cinnamon. The fragrance settles down to spicy woody vanilla with just the right amount of sweetness and could be perceived as a tad feminine leaning because of it, which is subjective anyways but if you like Vanilla Diorama Dior or Vanille Divine Essential Parfums definitely give this a try. There is depth, development and layers in all stages of this scent's life which I really like. The sprayer is of top quality as well, it disperses the finest mist with one spray, longevity is above average even if sillage is on the moderate side and I can feel it on my skin lightly even after shower!

Very high quality fragrance with an excellent performance. Smells luxurious. Really well blended combination that reminds me of "cuba libre" cocktail with vanilla in it. To me it is going linear for now but thats my first test. Maybe after several wearings I will notice it developing more. Definitely unisex fragrance. Will test it on my girlfriend in the following days. The performance is also great. I sprayed two times at 7:30 in the morning and I was still able to smell it after 16:00. Projection is strong in the first 3-4 hours. Presentation is also exceptional. The boxing is elegant and reveals the fragrance slowly, making you feel even more satisfied with the purchase. Compact 50ml bottle with a metal plate, which holds the fragrance name.

Mladen is a good friend of mine and I think I was one of the first people to have a chance to wear this and test it. He did put a lot of time and thinking in this fragrance, the result is a very well balanced fragrance that would appeal to gourmand lovers who enjoy high quality fragrances with good performance, from known fragrances it is close to vanilla diorama but it is not a clone or something, there is a rum note that can also be detected here and also the coca cola and orange are quite prominent in the opening. Definitely a compliment getter fragrance, more suited for the cooler months and night wear in my opinion, great quality and great presentation, give it a try and I think you will not be disappointed.
