The review

On paper, Honey Orchid is a reasonable bet if you want Vanilla | 28 for less.

Àerre sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Vanilla | 28's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $45 it costs 70% less than Vanilla | 28.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Àerre publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on vanilla orchid and jasmine, turns to brown sugar and Tonka Bean, and settles into amber, amberwood and musk. That is the brief Honey Orchid is working from.

Top

  • vanilla orchid
  • jasmine

Heart

  • brown sugar
  • Tonka Bean

Base

  • amber
  • amberwood
  • musk
Madagascan vanilla orchid over brown sugar and tonka, the layering vanilla everyone else copies.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
