Key Notes of Aquatic Vanilla
What Does Aquatic Vanilla Smell Like
Dossier's Aquatic Vanilla perfume, inspired by Juliette has A Gun's Vanilla Vibes, emits a scent that evokes a sensation of a serene beach under the warm sun. The top notes of marine notes, red fruits, and rose introduce a fresh and mildly sweet fragrance, subtly invoking the feeling of a cool, salty sea breeze. Adding an unexpected twist to the scent profile are the middle notes of vanilla, orchid and coconut, lending a creamy warmth to the fragrance. The rich, sweet, slightly spicy aroma of vanilla is complemented by the exotic, tropical scent of coconut, while the floral note of orchid provides a distinctly luxurious touch. The perfume concludes with base notes of musks, sandalwood, and benzoin. These notes infuse an earthy and mildly sweet tone into the fragrance, with the musks adding a touch of masculinity, the sandalwood injecting a woody scent and the benzoin contributing a hint of warmth and subtle sweetness. A unique combination of warm and marine notes make Aquatic Vanilla an interesting juxtaposition of smells from the beach: salty sea air, warm sand, and tropical flora.
Review of Aquatic Vanilla
Dossier's Aquatic Vanilla is a budget-friendly interpretation of the high-end Juliette Has A Gun's Vanilla Vibes. Retailing at just $29, Aquatic Vanilla offers a fragrance experience that is quite comparably satisfying to the original $100 perfume.
One of the most striking aspects that need to be pointed out is the perfume's versatility. Its unisex nature makes it a suitable choice for anyone who enjoys the scent of the sea mingled with the warm allure of vanilla. The 22% concentration ensures a lasting scent that won't easily fade throughout the day.
In terms of scent profile, Aquatic Vanilla does an admirable job of replicating Vanilla Vibes' harmony of marine and sweet notes. The orchid and coconut elements add a sunny character to the overall scent, reminiscent of a summer beach holiday. While it doesn't fully match the original's intensity, it does capture the essence of its inspiration.
However, the scent might not be for everyone, as it leans a bit towards the sweeter side. If you're not a fan of prominent vanilla notes, this might not be the perfume for you.
For those concerned with ethical sourcing, it's worth noting that Dossier's Aquatic Vanilla is vegan and cruelty-free. Furthermore, the ingredients are clean, making it a good choice for those who are health-conscious or sensitive to certain additives.
In the end, Dossier offers a convincing dupe of a high-priced perfume. It's a worthy investment if you're looking for a similar scent experience without breaking the bank. While it doesn't match the original in every aspect, considering its price point, it does deliver a reliable and pleasurable olfactory experience.
