Ambery Vanilla is viewed as a serviceable budget dupe for YSL Black Opium with a similar dry down, but leans sweeter and less sophisticated than the luxury original. While praised for its value and pleasant vanilla-amber profile, some users find it lacks the smoky, darker complexity they're seeking, making it better suited for those who prefer sweeter fragrances over the luxe intensity of Tom Ford or niche alternatives.
