Island Vanilla לעומת Hypnotic Poison

The community has divided opinions on Pacifica Island Vanilla depending on which formulation is used. The body mist in the white bottle is praised for smelling like vanilla extract and offering good value, while the aerosol spray version is considered significantly worse. Some users note the older formula was superior, but overall it's seen as a solid budget vanilla option when the right version is selected.

Hypnotic Poison is a divisive fragrance with devoted fans and skeptics. While older formulations were praised for depth and longevity, recent batches are noticeably weaker and reformulated. The scent's gourmand profile (almond, vanilla) appeals to some but the initial notes (often described as root beer, playdough, or rubber) are off-putting to others, making it highly dependent on personal skin chemistry and preference.
