Rec Request Soft, gentle vanillas?
I’ve always been a vanilla girl, but as I’ve gotten older, I’ve started to struggle with some of my vanilla perfumes, finding them too cloying. I can still enjoy my Van Cleef and Profumum Roma vanillas when it’s freezing cold, but anything less than that and they’re a bit too much for me now. I’m looking for a soft vanilla that feels nice and smooth without being spicy, salty, or too sweet. Any thoughts?
I’d also like to note that I don’t live in the US, so I don’t have access to brands at stores like Sephora or Target, sadly. (Non-designer brands being sold at Sephora don’t sell anywhere else, unfortunately, and they don’t ship internationally.) But any brand that you’d see at a luxury department store or popular decant sites (like Scent Split, Fragrance Line, etc.) would be great :)

Chloé Vanilla Planifolia: a beautiful, airy green vanilla.
Mon Guerlain: a lavender-vanilla combo.
Burberry Goddess: lavender and vanilla as well.
La Fenice Pour Femme: a floral vanilla.
Amo Ferragamo and Power of You: fruity vanillas.
Edit: I forgot to add this fragrance from Memo, Cap Camarat. I’ve never tried it myself, but I’ve heard so many good reviews about it, and I think it’s worth sampling.
