The review

On paper, Simply Vanille is a strong bet if you want Vanille 44 for less.

ALT Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Vanille 44's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $82 per 100ml it costs 78% less than Vanille 44 — the cheapest of 1 twins we can price.

Value8.7
Evidence7.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength ALT 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.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on bergamot and incense, turns to vanilla, orange blossom and clove, and settles into sandalwood, guaiac wood and musk. That is the brief Simply Vanille is working from.

Top

  • bergamot
  • incense

Heart

  • vanilla
  • orange blossom
  • clove

Base

  • sandalwood
  • guaiac wood
  • musk
Vanilla drawn through incense and guaiac smoke, dark, resinous and nothing like a bakery.
