Tested combinations

Kayali Vanilla | 28 layered with YSL Libre

Kayali Vanilla | 28 + YSL Libre

Creamy vanilla meets aromatic lavender and orange blossom for a sweeter, warmer version of Libre.

Spray Libre first and let it dry down for a minute before adding one spray of Vanilla 28.

Baccarat Rouge 540 layered with Kayali Vanilla | 28

Baccarat Rouge 540 + Kayali Vanilla | 28

The amber glow of BR540 gets a milk-and-sugar filter. Softer, rounder, far more wearable in close quarters.

Two sprays of BR540 maximum. It will happily eat the vanilla otherwise.

Delina layered with Burberry Goddess

Delina + Burberry Goddess

Rose and lychee sitting on a lavender-vanilla bed. Feels expensive and slightly retro.

Apply Goddess to skin and Delina to your hair for a softer trail.

Lost Cherry layered with Kayali Vanilla | 28

Lost Cherry + Kayali Vanilla | 28

Cherry cordial with a vanilla cream top. Dessert, but tailored.

Great in cold weather. In heat this combination gets very loud very fast.

Libre L'Eau Nue layered with Prada Paradoxe

Libre L'Eau Nue + Prada Paradoxe

Clean neroli and musk stretched over soft lavender. The most office-safe combination on this page.

One spray each. This one is about restraint.
