The review
On paper, Vanilla Baby is a strong bet if you want Babycat for less.
The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Babycat's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $33 it costs 86% less than Babycat.
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.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on bergamot and pink pepper, turns to leather, iris and suede, and settles into vanilla, Tonka Bean and musk. That is the brief Vanilla Baby is working from.
Top
- bergamot
- pink pepper
Heart
- leather
- iris
- suede
Base
- vanilla
- Tonka Bean
- musk
Soft suede melting into vanilla and tonka, the most cloned thing YSL has made in years.
