Vanilla and frankincense in perfect harmony
Whoa! With phytotherapy like my Vorrender Schnoork I can't get around the corner now, even if I find it unspeakably exciting. But I like Eau Duelle at least as much :)

Had the EdT and me previously only last year after the felt fourth or fifth bottle used up the unfortunately even more expensive EdP granted. First of all I have to say that the EdP doesn't last forever and just like the EdT it stays very, very close. On the one hand a bit of a pity, but on the other it's always just right if you don't want to be touched by the scent. That's one I even wear to the doctor or the osteopath without a guilty conscience.

What I particularly like about Eau Duelle is the combination of vanilla and incense. Since another scent madman had fixed me with Weihrach and I possess also the one or other incense smell, I had to test this combination absolutely, because vanilla belonged always to my favorite notes. It was clear that he would move in with me immediately and accompany me for many, many years now.

And yes, I think Vanille Insensée from Atelier Cologne also plays in this league. At first I thought if you had one, you wouldn't need the other. I was totally wrong about that, because you need both. The differences are fine but still significant. Because the smoky of Eau Duelle doesn't have vanilla insensée at all. I always like to wear both of them at customer meetings, so you never do anything wrong. And: Both of them are always used when I can't make up my mind after having inspected all my bottles umpteen times. They really always leave. Whether it's 30 degrees outside or snowing

I want to wrap myself in this scent
It was really absolute instant love when I received a sample of Eau Duelle from a dear Perfuma. Once sprayed, I was there. I got hit hard.
Enough has been said about the scent of those who know their way around. I'm not gifted at all.

I only recognize vanilla. The most beautiful vanilla ever. Not sweet pudding, but bitter, warm, enveloping. When I smell this wonderful scent, I feel embraced and safe. Peaceful. Happy. Full. Somehow it's got me all the feel-good synapses. Wonderfully beautiful, long lasting. A smell like home. Like a warm fireplace room when you come from a snow walk.

Pah, I'm totally unpoetic, but I can't resist these pictures. The Eau Duelle is sure to pull in a bottle sometime

Vanilla for vanilla haters
Before I smelled and wore Eau Duelle for the first time, my expectations were quite different. I imagined the scent to be much sweeter and more vanilla. This may be due to the fact that until now I have only smelled vanillin fragrances.
While spraying it on, the thought came to my mind: What a natural smelling scent. Not really like a perfume at all. Very woody and spicy. A touch of pine or pine resin I perceive or at least believe it. This experience is accompanied by a wonderful smokiness and an authentically scented vanilla, which, however, remains covered in the background at first. The vanilla fights its way into the foreground during the day and culminates in a pleasant fragrance at the end of the day. The component is never penetrating or too sweet. I have a few vanilla scents in my collection and I perceive Eau Duelle more as a holier-than-thou fragrance.
The perfume is never intrusive. I notice it, but I'm not really addressed. Often I wear it to bed just for myself.
I have never smelled the EdT and therefore I cannot make a comparison.
All in all, Eau Duelle is for me a very beautiful and pleasant fragrance that convinced me with its authentic scent. An adult authentic vanilla, which can definitely be worn by men as well.
I don't have to say anything about the diptyque bottles. For me they are beautiful in design!

Incense resin and a vanilla that adorns itself
Many write about "smoke" smell when they describe the smell. I disagree. When I smoke, I suddenly flee - that's one of the worst smells ever for me. But there's no smoke in Eau Duelle.
Incense is in Eau Duelle, yes, a lot of it. But it's not the smouldering smoke, it's the sweet-spicy resin pellets BEFORE they're lit.
I was an altar boy for years and sniffed directly at the incense jug several times. That's a wonderful smell, I tell you, so noble, so exotic, almost honey. And that's how Eau Duelle smells to me.
Incense resin, that's the main chord, sweet balsamic resin. The fragrance begins with a tangy spicy bergamot note, accompanied by pepper, the other spices at most minimally supportive recognizable. An unsweet bourbon vanilla rounds off the creamy fragrance, but you have to make an effort to consciously smell it. So for me, the fragrance is actually mainly a spicy resin fragrance with a very linear progression. Only later the vanilla comes out a little stronger, but I had to rub my nose on my wrist.
The scent is unfortunately not durable at all on me. By the time the base notes come out stronger, the scent is already so weak that it's almost gone. Too bad, too bad. Because the vanilla is really very beautiful, no vanillin, an absolutely natural Bourbon vanilla fragrance like the pods.
I still think Eau Duelle is beautiful, it contains only scents I like. Extremely close, comforting, rather a night scent or late twilight when the sky is purple. But he could have been a bit more durable. "I don't find resin and vanilla at all, I rather find them "made for each other"

Wellness at its best... Dreamlike...
A fragrance that definitely smells extremely, really extremely good. It's spicy and soft/sweet... I stick to my wrist and can not stop sniffing this fragrance.... Whether I can imagine this fragrance as a body scent, I honestly don't know? Two things made me think. Firstly, I see this scent a bit more on a man than on a woman, of course this is a matter of taste but it smells to me more like an extremely good smelling scent in a wellness oasis or let's say in a herbal sauna.... But my nose is constantly asking for this scent, and now? I will continue to test the fragrance for several days to see if the actually may move in with me or whether the me maybe too much direction masculine..

About the scent: The scent is super pleasant by a very spicy but still very soft vanilla / pepper note.... Like vanilla powder mixed with pepper.... But it is not a sweet or girly or typical vanilla scent but an adult and through the soft smoke a bit smoky vanilla..

It is very difficult to describe the fragrance but this warm and spicy note, which I have experienced at least in some noble wellness oases especially in the Emirates, is so embracing and so soothing..The Cypriol gives the fragrance this very special herbal soft "wellness" note....

For me this is a very good spicy/peppery vanilla without a significant evolution. Warm, sweet and good for everyday use.

One of my favorite fragrances for everyday use, especially in autumn. Cozy, comforting and non-offensive but at the same time never boring.

Soft incense vanilla, warm and cool at the same time. Very familiar, cuddly, if not a little obvious. Still pretty comforting easy to like!

Vanilla unfolds in combination with juniper and elemi its beauty. Soft and well balanced between gourmand, woody and spicy.
