A beautiful spicy vanilla scent!

I never tried YSL Babycat but heard Rifaaqat was a close dupe. When I first spritz it on my skin, I get loads of pepper with a vanillic undertone.

It becomes yummy and delectable. Very refined caramel toffee like. There isn't much transition tbh. But one thing is for sure, it's addictive. The pepper note is still the main character in this perfume; the bourbon vanilla only comes forward more in the middle and stays throughout the base. It never gets gourmandy or too woody on me. It's a very sexy kind of vanilla tbh.

Definitely unisex, leaning slightly toward masculine, but women can rock it. The YouTuber Noelle influenced me to give this a try, and I am so glad I did. Because it is exactly how she described.

I imagine a very bold, hot woman in her 30s, wearing this on a date night or somewhere important when it's really cold. I visualize her in a black two-piece blazer suit, chilling with a glass of red wine. This is the perfume a woman with resting b*tch face would wear, and I mean that with all respect and love. She looks so hot, but she appears unapproachable.
