Ledda 19 Vanilla Nera Perfume Review

Draft
The latest addition to the Ledda fragrance family: 18 Vanilla Nera. A very sweet vanilla with hints of spice, thanks to a touch of ginger and cardamom. It’s almost as if it’s holiday time and I’m eating a delicious spiced cake, but it’s store-bought so the spices are turned down and the vanilla is turned way up, but that’s ok because this is the dessert that’s mostly for the kids anyway.

Is this a grown up vanilla? I’d say, maybe, for the person who wants to pretend that they’re grown up because they can order their own perfume online, but for those of us actually paying taxes and packing lunches… this is a throw-back to when “grown-up” was a concept and not a reality.

The formula is intense, and super strong, and the presentation doesn’t disappoint. Of course, even Zara is packaging each perfume in heavy glass bottles now, but this juice doesn’t smell generic and there’s impressive longevity in each spray. A safe blind-buy if you like cozy sweet vanillas, but maybe Burberry Goddess had too much ambroxan for you, or you didn’t like the lavender note. Maybe Dolce and Gabanna Divine Devotion was too citrusy in the opening and that wasn’t your thing either. Maybe you like the impressive bottle and the idea of getting your hands on something not everyone has. Then 18 Vanilla Nera is for you.
