    Chile, I have backup bottles of both of these fragrances. They are some of the best layering vanillas I've ever smelled. It really goes to show that fragrances smell differently on different people. You have to try these things for yourself.

      I love this scent! I do not get anything bad from it. ppl also dont realize that even if you wash a prior fragrance off thru bathing, scents stay imbedded in the skin for 72 hours with your chemistry , so when you try a newer scent , it could smell off because your skin is still getting notes from the prior scent imbedded from your chemistry, so it takes a few days for your chemistry to clear . Also , if you drink alcohol , smoke , food you eat , hormone cycle changes and or take medications all affect how a fragrance can smell on your body.

    Goes to show that fragrances really are personal and subjective. I’m sorry they didn’t work out for you, but I don’t smell a whiff of coconut or air freshener in Bianco Latte and personally for me, it’s the best vanilla gourmand I’ve ever smelled. As for Escapade Gourmande, I don’t smell the play dough at all. Both of them were my favorite purchases of 2023. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on these perfumes nonetheless because I was interested in what you thought of them.

    I agree with escapade Gourmande I just got marzipan vibes for hours. After about 6 or 7 hours I got a slight vanilla vibe. I love bianco latte, it smells like a whipped vanilla cream with a hint of smokey marshmallow and a slight touch of coconut. I find it sits beautifully on my skin. I bought bianco latte rather than escapade Gourmande because it sat better for me. Thewles for the review ❤

    It's so amazing how these fragrances read different to our noses and skin. And i get not jumping on the hype train because of these factors. BL didn't read vanilla car tree on me, but longevity, and sillage were on point and read burnt sugar and vanilla all the way through. One of the best blind buys that gets me compliments when I wear her.😊

    thank you for saying this about escapade bc I got a small sample of it and wasn't impressed at all. the vanilla I was impressed by was tihota indult. howeverrr..... my Bianco latte is my girl and has gotten me the most compliments of all time. id wear it out more bc people seem to adore it

    • @theperfumegirl444
      @theperfumegirl444 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      but I agree with you on the nest Madagascar vanilla being too coconutty. I dont like it much either. it smells nice but Its not my type of vanilla. I personally dont get that with Bianco latte though. if anything, it reminds me of commodity's milk. its that synthetic lactonic vibe I get. but it really depends on your perception with Bianco I think. because other times I get crystallized sugar, others I get cinnamon, others I get milk, and others I get the caramel honey. I havent gotten coconut yet though

    • @theperfumegirl444

    @ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    For anybody who has yet to try Bianco Latte, please don't get sucked into the hype, packaging and weird descriptions of it being a milky caramel magic elixir. What you're going to encounter is one of two things: 1) that weird plastic doll's head smell or 2), a coumarin and honey festival. So basically a musky base mixed with that type of synthetic vanilla that smells like a fusty dusty Little Tree that you find under the front seat of the car whilst valeting one rare Sunday and on top of that, a steaming damp haybale in the summer sun, drying out after someone has broken an enormous jar of honey over it; it's drying in the warm afternoon sun. Coumarin is a lactonic (a word people seem to think means 'milky' but doesn't.) Coumarin also has a slight almondy-tonka beany vibe to it. So if someone is hunting for the haybale'n'honey fragrance with no notes added as distracting olfactory tinsel, then the monstrously overrated Bianco Latte would be their holy grail. The final dry down is really quite lovely though...nice and solid once it morphs into a marshmallow smell, although frustratingly it lives very close to the skin at that stage. I worry about how susceptible people are to marketing campaigns. If you put any fragrance into a plain mason jar with no name, no imagery-- nothing at all-- and gave it to people to smell, boy oh boy would we see a revolution in the world of psychology, marketing and fragrance. People see what they're guided to see and they smell what they're shown to smell.

    I never blind buy anymore. I sprayed my decant of EG and thought, well this is disappointing. But after about 5 minutes it went BOOM after warming up on my skin. I was so surprised. It’s my favorite vanilla now. I also love Tresor LaNuit Nude. I don’t get much from any of the Xerjoff. So subjective.

    I will say though, a truuuuuly delicious gourmand I’ve just tried is the New Notes Caramelo Vanilla.
    Starts off like burnt sugar kind of, and the dry down is ridiculous - creamy, sweet caramel.

After about 1 hour, I smelled something interesting somewhere in the background, but the synthetic smell was so pronounced and off-putting. I felt rejected. WHY DOESN'T THIS PERFUME LIKE ME?!?

Escapade Gourmand, I got a decant and was like umm no, not for $300. Light, airy vanilla. I got Genre's version and I'm in love. It has a bit more density. I might have to pull it out today.

I felt that Escapade Gourmand and Cozy Vanilla Bourbon were in the same scent category and I had purchased them around the same time. I also bought Mahni Cassonade at the same time, and that's the only vanilla fragrance that I instantly loved. With Escapade Gourmand, I had to use almost half the bottle before I started appreciating it, but by then, my 12-year-old granddaughter had already grown fond of it. So, I ended up giving it to her. As for BL, I tend to go nose-blind to it within an hour or so, but the fragrance lasts on my clothes for a very long time.

    I picked up a sample of Bianco Latte and they sent me some of the body cream as well, I think it's OK ,incredible performance but I bought a fb of Van Exctasyx from Lorenzo Pazzaglia and really love that one , it has florals and oud which I feel gives it something a little different .... I'm sorry these blind buys didn't work out for you

    OMG CHI CHI!! I was waiting for you to talk about this one. I am so glad I got a sample of Bianco Latte because I remember almost getting a full bottle based on all the reviews, and girl am I glad I didn't. When I sprayed it on paper, I was like it smells like a stink bug with a hint of vanilla. Hated it. On skin it's okay but I am not a fan and don't understand it.

    I just came across You're Channel I'm going to subscribe.You were the first About the Dupe perfumes. Because I was gonna go purchase some of them but the car Freshner. had me rolling. They go to post so I'm gonna go back and listen to the rest of to do, but you really have a great personality.l one just killed me. And you have a great personality and I trust you. Unlike some other Channels rave about the alt.And they're saying that $300.It's only $60.Well $,60.Is lot of money. If I wanted to spend $60 on a bottle of perfume and it ends up smelling my car air fresher I would not be happy. You have a great personality. I was cracking up.

    Thank you so so much for your reviews! I love your personality and your channel. I bought Mon Guerlain when Sephora had the 1.0oz on sale for $50 (I think it’s currently on sale now) about a month ago, and the moment I got it and sprayed it on my hand…it smelled good (I think it had mixed with what I had already been wearing). When I tried it on after that, instant play dough smell each and every time.😮😮
    I was so upset because I threw away all the packaging (even though I normally don’t) and I couldn’t return it, so I just gave it to my co-worker. 🤷🏽‍♀️
    I was also extremely underwhelmed and disappointed when I bought Ansaam Gold by Lattafa and Yara…I’ve been letting them sit for the past few months and I’m still ehhh about them.

    That is the beauty of fragrance....it is subjective even to our own nose. We can not like it when sprayed initially but....once it mixes with your body chemistry what actually projects will be something different which unfortunately our noses may not pick up on but others will. Sometimes a fragrance also needs to sit and macerate so those notes over time will change and our nose will smell something different altogether...it's amazing. I hated chemistry yet the science of fragrance is nothing but chemistry ❤. I say all this to say that is the beauty of this passion I have for fragrance and perfume. The possibilities are endless so I will never get enough 😊

    I’ve ordered several samples of Bianco latte, I’m underwhelmed. I keep ordering them because I feel like I should like it because I like vanilla. But now that I’ve ordered all these samples I think it’s a safe call to say this one is not for me. It’s just not worth the money in my opinion. I did just get the Paris corner caramel cascade dupe and for $30 I’ll use that to layer. I wore that to work and got compliments on it.

    Omg I am so happy I’m not the only one. I sampled both of them and I was like ummm no lol. Not worth the hype. With Escapade gourmand I was like this smells similar and then I figured it out. It literally smells like Dior hypnotic poison. I did a comparison and EG has a little bit more vanilla and Dior has a little bit of chocolate, but literally 95% the same. Not worth the price. IMO.
