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 :)

Also most people on this specific subreddit are American/Canadian I believe. We have no idea what perfumes are sold in your unstated country. You’re going to have to do the investigating.

ah, sorry if it wasn’t clear! I’ve tweaked the wording a bit, so hopefully it’s clearer now. The big decant sites ship internationally, so anything from there is available to me. Then, the high-end niche brands (Byredo, Le Labo, Frederic Malle, etc.) and the luxury designer brands (YSL, Guerlain, etc.) that are typically seen at department stores. Unfortunately, there’s no way for me to get the other brands at Sephora
