What do reviewers say about Red Vanilla and Exquise Tentation?
Red Vanilla is a solid everyday scent that nails the citrus-to-warm transition. The vanilla is present but not dominant, and hinoki wood adds an unexpected twist that keeps things interesting.Red Vanilla
There's a version of vanilla that just sits there, sweet for the sake of it. Dorothée Piot chose differently. Praline and bitter almond give this something to say, nutty, almost edible.Exquise Tentation
