Sublime Vanille vs Tobacco Vanille

The r/fragrance community views Sublime Vanille very positively, praising its beautiful and distinctive vanilla profile with citrusy elements. However, the prohibitively high retail price and disappointing longevity are significant drawbacks, with many seeking affordable alternatives or discounted purchases in the $200-300 range instead of paying full price.

Tobacco Vanille is a highly polarizing fragrance that divides the community. Fans praise its warm vanilla sweetness and longevity, while detractors find the tobacco note too reminiscent of cigarette smoke, particularly if they grew up avoiding secondhand smoke. Performance and tolerance appear to have declined with reported reformulations.
