There is nothing better than a great winter vanilla, and in this video I’m sharing the 13 vanilla fragrances I reach for most when it’s cold outside—cozy, rich, comforting, and honestly a little addictive. I go through different “types” of winter vanilla, because not all vanilla is the same: I talk lemon-vanilla pound cake vibes (my favorite vanilla DNA), floral vanilla that turns into vanilla buttercream on skin, straight-up cupcake vanillas that make my mouth water, and deeper spicy/woody options for when you want something more sensual. I also get into what makes each one special on my skin—like which ones are beast mode, which ones sit closer, and which ones I’m personally craving right now (yes, I’m fully stuck on the cupcake vanillas lately). I share layering tips too, especially with a vanilla oil to boost sweetness and longevity, and I compare a few popular vanilla styles—like why I prefer Vanilla Royale Sugared Patchouli over Vanilla 28, and why I think an affordable Bianco Latte-style scent can still feel thick, rich, and less synthetic. If you’re building a winter vanilla wardrobe on a budget (with a few splurges), this list will have you covered.
