    I recently bought Vibrant Vetiver after testing and comparing against Bal D'Afrique - the original scent was amazing, but with the cost of living pressures at the moment, I'm not spending Australian $300+ for a bottle of the original. Absolutely enjoying VV in its place - it's a gorgeous, refreshing scent that really lifts my mood and helps me shine during the hot summer days. Not sure I will ever buy the original - there's just not a big enough difference to justify it.

      Do they smell almost exactly the same?

      @troycastle5640 No, they don't smell exactly the same. Now that I've had it for a while I find that Vibrant Vetiver is brighter and more citrusy than Bal D'Afrique, which is softer, creamier, and more rounded. I personally prefer the brightness of Vibrant Vetiver - it's more refreshing than warm /tropical.

    Good morning, Cee! Fabulous comparison review here. I think I might actually enjoy the Paris Corner more, due to the muted blackcurrant in favour of a more citrus scent. And of course the savings is terrific. Summer scents are definitely something I need more of, as I tend towards the heavier heady side. To that end, if you ever wondered if you made lives better with your reviews, I was gifted Sheikh Shuyukh luxe edition by my son, after a deep dive into your reviews and research on Fragrantica etc. I’m so in love with it! It is perfect for me and you convinced him of this fact. I’m so grateful and happy! The tightest hug and smiles from this glorious scent bubble today, my sweet friend! This channel is a gem and I’m so glad to know you, even from across the world. Mwah!💋 🌺❤️🌺

    The side by side comparisons are so useful - recently I have got Middle Eastern alternatives but kind of wished I’d saved up and got the originals, other times I’ve been glad I saved my money. I don’t find my bottle of VV not as bright and fresh as baldafrique but Vibrant Orange and Neroli is close enough to sundazed for me not to want the original.

    I picked up Vibrant Vetiver Delight a few months ago. I really enjoy it. Perfect for spring/summer, casual t-shirt and jeans kind of days. I have Guerlain's Aqua Allegoria ⋅ Nerolia Vetiver which this kind of reminds me of in a much distant way. like they're not neighbours, but live a few blocks over from eachother. Love both.

    Last week, I was torn between ordering Rich Santal or Vibrant Vetiver Delight. I ended up ordering Rich Santal because I was afraid VVD would be too citrusy. I love the comparison! ❤Thank you for your amazing review and detailed description. I guess I’m buying VVD next 😅 .

      @@CeeChroniclesTalkingScents Dear Cee, have you met Emir Pear potion yet? I just received the package and I want to bathe in this scent. In a sense, they are in a similar scent direction as Vibrant Vetiver, but with the addition of fruit. I have a feeling they will be incredibly durable. Simply a feminine wonder for hot days. Greetings from Europe and thank you for everything I can learn from you.

    Hello Cee, I don't have either, but I've been shopping for the Emir Vibrant Orange frag. It's always sold out or priced wayyy to high. I'll wait till it's doable/reasonable/available. However, I did get Lattafas African Drummer :) for a steal, it does need to maturate, very new production. Thank you, as always great comparison review. Hope your week is a banger! 😊

      Hey Cee, love Bal d’Afrique, and while I’m yet to pick up vibrant vetiver (I definitely will), I did pick up the perfume parlour extract version (called African Art), and that one projects well and is very long lasting. I’ll always have that rendition in my collection. Thanks for these informative videos ❤️❤️! Keep safe.

      @@DDH64812 sorry I didn’t reply earlier on me it’s about a good 6-7 hours but it’s quite potent the more it macerates so for my skin now I get about 8 hours and stays on cloths until the next wash. Almost forget I live in Africa so the climate might play a role in the performance

    I own bal dafrique and its almost empty. I love it but I cant standddd blackcurrant LoL I just tolerate it since its in the opening. I think ill like the the vibrant vetiver and try that as a replacement! This is why I like clones cause sometimes the small changes they make actually removes notes & components I dislike in the originals!

    I’m so trying to come up with a Vetiver perfume I’d love. Fell in love with Vetiver years back in a bar soap by Claus Porto in Vetiver. It’s was the biggest bar soap ever and smelled like heaven. Can’t find the same bar exactly. Want a Vetiver perfume.

    I wanted to try the Vetiver vibe so I got a guerlain Vetiver 5 ml sample .
    I must say NOT for ME 🤔.
    Will appeal to some BUT it's exactly like mowing the lawn and jumping face first into the grass cuttings.
    Talk about GREEN 🙄 ?.
    I have fragrances with Vetiver in them but those are fresh more pleasing.
    So my ??? IS does all Vetiver smell like damp fresh cut grass.
    Is Polo or this Paris corner emir more fresh er safe.
    Just curious I realise this is an old post.
    But for example they say the old original Eau Savage is Vetiver but I used to have that and it's a million miles away from guerlain Vetiver.

    Hi there Miss Cee. I have a question, appreciate it if you could give me your time. I am planning on getting a summer fragrance and Emir's Vibrant Vetiver Delight or Lattafa's Qaed Al Fursan. I have an idea of the Creed DNA and the BR540 that's why I was considering QAF. Any input to help me with this dilemma with be great. 😊😊
