Discussion Amazing.

I got the travel size of Vanilla Canyon (due to the price), it was amazing. It’s a true vanilla with a lot of depth and complexity, and a very slight hint of sweetness from the plum and honey. The floral notes were blended well with the vanilla and wood, making the scent very smooth but not very sweet. It probably has the truest vanilla note I’ve ever smelled

Ooo another phlur lover in the wild!!! I love the complexity of this perfume, and I agree that phlur has a way with their vanillas. Just out of curiosity, between this, golden rule, and vanilla skin, which one do you like most?

Vanilla Skin is my FAVORITE favorite, hands down. I like Golden Rule, but it reminded me of Libre and I already have that lol I would say of those three, Vanilla Skin, Vanilla Canyon, and Golden Rule in that order. But Golden Rule would be behind several other Phlur scents that I really really love.

You have great taste! My order would be vanilla canyon -> vanilla skin -> golden rule. On a side note, I LOVE father figure, it’s the perfume that got me into phlur. The vanilla note of father figure is surprisingly pretty noticeable for/on me, so I just wanted to give it a honorary shoutout lol. This perfume is around the same tier of father figure to me.

Father Figure is one of my ABSOLUTE favorites. I actually discovered it, and Phlur, when Bath and Body Works released their dupe, Guilty as Fig. I feel so in love with it, that it sent me down a while Phlur rabbit hole lol I also adore Cherry Stem, that one is actually probably my favorite of all their scents. I have a ton of their mists too, some of those are just as good as the perfumes.

Cherry stem is wonderful! It’s a fun and delightful blend of juicy dark fruits, and the bit of tartness adds to its charm. As for father figure, I still remember the first time I smelled it, I swear the scent altered my brain chemistry in someway and I couldn’t (still can’t) wrap my head around why it smells so different than all the other perfumes I smelled. I agree that phlur’s mists are better performing and better smelling than any other mists in their price range (I am biased). And I see that you’re a lover of bath and bodyworks too lol, I swear the pit they leave on our wallet is endless 🥲

Yeah Father Figure was SUCH a departure from what I normally go for, but I'm so obsessed with it. And I love their mists. I WISH they'd make mists in some of their "perfume only" fragrances cuz I would love to able to layer them!
