The review
On paper, Cafe Drops is a reasonable bet if you want Vanilla | 28 for less.
Mykonos 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 $106 per 100ml it costs 65% less than Vanilla | 28 — the 12th cheapest of 13 twins we can price.
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 Mykonos 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 Cafe Drops 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.
How it ranks against the other twins
Of the 19 twins of Kayali Vanilla | 28 we can price, Cafe Drops is number 12 on price per 100ml.
