American Cream vs Vanillary

American Cream by Lush receives mixed opinions from the community, with users appreciating its creamy vanilla dry down but noting it has surprisingly weak sillage and projection. While some find it pleasant for personal wear and intimate settings, it's generally not recommended for office environments where scent needs to be noticeable throughout the day.

Vanillary is a highly polarizing Lush fragrance with devoted fans who find it a comforting, long-lasting vanilla scent, but equally vocal detractors who experience off-putting urine, yeast, or beer-like notes due to skin chemistry variations. The fragrance's performance appears inconsistent, with some attributing this to formula changes between the solid and current tin versions, making it a true "try before you buy" product.
