The review
Strong contender. That is where Vanille Fatale lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Vanille Fatale.
Palermo Perfumes 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 $23 it costs 92% less than Vanille Fatale.
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 Palermo Perfumes 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.

- cardamom
Heart

Vanilla rendered dark and smoky with spice and incense; opulent, warm and anything but simple.
