Captivating Vanilla

I don’t get loads of sugar and pineapple here but the vanilla and jasmine are at the forefront. I would swear there’s also orange blossom in there too, but who am I to argue with the Fragrantica notes? This is nice enough - echoes of Dior Addict but absolutely nowhere close to its quality. There’s a bit of Vanilla Candy Rock Sugar in there but, again, not great. Overall, this will be an easy grab and spray but I won’t rebuy it. It’s relatively cheap...but probably priced for the quality. Edit: this one really changes with my skin chemistry - I wore it to bed several times and it sings beautifully. Fruity, vanilla-y goodness. Worth a punt! Edit again: I got through a full bottle of this in about 7 weeks. I sprayed liberally and often. I found that some way along the journey, it turned a bit savoury (bread-y, almost) but for the most part, I loved it. Alas, Zara have discontinued it because of course they have... 🙄

To me this is sultry pear x golden decade x supreme vanilla. Though the sugary-fruity note is only there in the opening and after a few minutes what you are left with is a slightly woody and deeper golden decade. If you have golden decade don't get this, if you're planning to get gd, get this one instead. I think it is better. This is something i would buy if i travelled somewhere and forgot to bring perfume. It is safe and a decent performer. But i regret buying it cause i already have the trio i mentioned above.

I love this one so much. The sugary sweetness is beautiful and comforting, and it feels so warm and addictive. It’s simple but done really well. I honestly wish I could find a more expensive, niche-feeling version with the same cozy, sugary warmth because this DNA is just perfect to me.

Great fruity pineapple & sweet vanilla scent. Captivating indeed. Easy to wear during the warmer seasons. Pair with BBW Bahamas Passionfruit & Banana flower & you've got the perfect tropical summer scent combo!! Delicious!

This is a sweet, floral, plummy vanilla with a tiny hint of juiciness coming through from that pineapple. I actually really like it!
