FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Worth a try. That is where A Vanillac Wood lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Un Bois Vanille.

The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Un Bois Vanille's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

Evidence7.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Dua Brand 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.
