The review
Worth a try. That is where Fatal de Vanille lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Vanille Fatale.
Alexandria Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Vanille Fatale's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $110 per 100ml it costs 62% less than Vanille Fatale — the 6th cheapest of 8 twins we can price.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Alexandria Fragrances 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.
