What do reviewers say about Vetiver & Golden Vanilla and Virgile?

Most vanillas play it safe, they want to be liked. This one remembers it grew up in a pod, earthy and slightly smoky, and leans into that. The mineral vetiver is the perfect foil.Vetiver & Golden Vanilla

Virgile's vanilla doesn't arrive sweet. It comes quiet, almost herbal itself, softened by sage and cedar. For those who want warmth without sugar, this is the angle.Virgile
