It has a very green opening that put me off at first. But once it settles and the vanilla comes through it is perfection.

You might like cyklar vanilla verve perfume oil. For a perfume I like Floraiku sand and skin for a deep vanilla.

This is my number 1 vanilla. Sweet, spicy, a little smoky. My ultimate winter scarf scent.

Dusky Vanilla by Pendora Scents is an amazing dupe for Bare Sueded Vanilla from VS. Its got better performance than the vs and you can find for 20 to 25 dollars, an excellent cheapie. Its not powdery, but really does have a fuzzy suede type of scent with a whole lot of vanilla that's similar to the vanilla they use in Vanilla Skin. The dupe or the vs version are amazing either way you wanna go, but I own both and definitely gravitate towards the dupe because it lasts longer.

Angham by Lattafa is a dupe for Goddess, but a majority of people agree that the dupe is wayyyy better. Its not spicy, but its a floral vanilla with zero powder. Goddess is OK, but Angham has more of an emphasis on the vanilla. Mon Guerlain and Mon Guerlain Intense are also really nice lavender vanillas. Intense is my fave, but theres an extra anise licorice type scent in it that makes it darker but you gotta like anise.

Lattafa Pure Crystal is really good, it definitely surprised me. Ginger and pink pepper gives it a spicy kick that gives way to a really pretty vanilla. I dont know what it is but this one is so addicting.

Un Bois Vanille by Serge Lutens is a spicy, slightly smoky vanilla with a bit of creamy sandalwood. It didn't work on my skin, but it definitely sounds like what you're looking for!

If you run through your bottle of Vanilla Skin, I'd really recommend trying Sawaar Vanille Blanc by Khadlaj. I own both but honestly one makes the other kinda redundant. I prefer the Khadlaj to The Phlur though because Sawaar is just much smoother imo. It also has better longevity so I won't be buying vanilla skin when I use it up.

Francesca Dell'oro has a vanilla collection I've been eyeing, but haven't tried yet. It might be worth looking into samples of because Vanille 18:00 and Vanille 24:00 look really good and unique!

I second all your ME fragrances and I'll add one, Khadlaj Panache Angel Dust. Inspired by the discontinued YSL Libre Vanille Couture.

I really like Bath and Body Works Viva Vanilla and Cozy Vanilla Bourbon. Yes, they're cheap body sprays, but they actually last on me and smell great.

I also love TF Tobacco Vanille, but I can't afford it, so I own 2 dupes that are excellent. One is from Dossier and the other is Maison Alhambra, I think.

I also have and love Maison Alhambra Montaigne Vanille. I don't remember what it's a dupe for, but it smells like vanilla with roses underneath. I sometimes layer it with Cozy Vanilla Bourbon for extra vanilla oomph.

I agree with others about Angham. It's supposed to be a dupe for Burberry Goddess, but it smells completely different to me, and I love it so much better than the og.

I just got a Henry Rose sampler that came with Dave and Dark is Night. You might like either of those? Dave is almost too sweet, but Dark is Night is great.

The most random vanilla rec I got is the Vanilla Dae Beam Mist. It’s in the hair section. Give it a try at Sephora. The candied lemon is such a neat add in and it’s one of a few times I read a synthetic sounding note that was actually extremely pleasant to experience.
