VS
Vanilla | 28
«Boozy ambered vanilla with brown sugar — grown-up and readable across the whole row.»
Yum Boujee Marshmallow | 81
«A sugar cloud of strawberry, marshmallow and peach — soft, childlike, clinging to its owner alone.»
They are sold on one carousel of clips, as if a layering set. The nose disagrees: all they share is vanilla and musk, the rest are strangers. Vanilla 28 is grown, boozy, audible from afar; Yum Boujee Marshmallow 81 is a sweet fruity whisper up close. Buy the person you are, not the trio.
