I’ve Found the Vanilla Scent for People Who Hate Gourmands—and It’s the Most Affordable Fragrance I Own

Phlur vanilla smoke.

I don't think I'm alone in saying that gourmand scents are perhaps some of my least favourite out there. Often heavy and cloying, they have a distinctly youthful feel that doesn't really match up with my preference for light and fresh perfumes.

That being said, I have always had an unusual penchant for vanilla fragrances. But not just any vanilla—my fussiness knows no bounds. However, Phlur's Vanilla Smoke, with notes of incense and aromatic birch, might just be the vanilla to convince even the most sweet-averse to give into gourmands. Undoubtedly one of the best Phlur perfumes, I recommend it to anyone that will listen.
