What do reviewers say about Aqua Allegoria Ylang & Vanille and Vanille Tropicale?
Guerlain built this fragrance before ylang-vanilla became a familiar combination in perfumery. The vanilla doesn't hide in the base here. It shares the stage with the florals from the start.Aqua Allegoria Ylang & Vanille
Jeanne Arthes doesn't get the credit it deserves. Vanille Tropicale punches above its weight class, coconut cream and vanilla blossom that could easily cost three times as much.Vanille Tropicale
