This is pretty close to the original. I think the leather in this version is a little sharp but it fades quickly. They nailed the smokey incense note which is my favorite part of Babycat. I removed a star because this scent dried down to such a similar one I already had from this brand - Guerlain Double Vanille. I don’t think these two fragrances are similar at all, but it must be the vanilla note that comes through in the end and it was so identical I forgot which one I was wearing. I will repurchase though because this is a hard to find fragrance.

Amazing vanilla based scent! I’m in love!

I’m actually obsessed with this one. Smoked Vanilla, lasts so long. If you are looking for sweet gourmand, you should try something else. I am getting the large bottle. I think this would be a great “base scent” to other winter fragrances.

This is a soft, slightly peppery, vanilla suede. It is not sweet at all, and seems like a skin scent. I have not smelled the original so I can’t compare. I can’t rave about the scent, but I’m grateful I can get it here at a fraction of the price. It is easily a unisex scent, without being overly masculine, like many “unisex” scents seem to be. It’s cozy but not a beast.
