Eshal Vanilla EDP 100ml by Paris Corner

A cult vanilla gourmand from a hugely popular Middle Eastern-inspired beauty brand Kayali Vanilla 28 retails for around $175-185 AUD for just 50ml in Australia. Eshal Vanilla gives you that same sugary, rose-jasmine-vanilla character in a full 100ml bottle for a fraction of the price — and it's become one of the most talked-about releases of the year on fragrance social media, with reviewers repeatedly calling it one of the closest matches they've tried.

The Story

Paris Corner built Eshal Vanilla to take on one of the most beloved gourmand vanillas of the last few years — a fragrance that turned raw Madagascan vanilla into a genuine phenomenon. When Eshal Vanilla launched in 2025, it quickly went viral on TikTok, with reviewers filming side-by-side comparisons and declaring it one of the strongest attempts yet at capturing that exact warm, sugary, slightly boozy character.

The Scent

It opens with sugar and sweet accords — an immediate, inviting sweetness that sets the tone from the very first spray.

The heart brings rose and jasmine together, though most reviewers describe these florals as present but subtle, mostly working behind the scenes to round out the sweetness rather than stepping forward on their own.

The base settles into vanilla, musk, and caramel, delivering a rich, warm, slightly boozy finish that reviewers consistently single out as the highlight — some describe it as tasting like a bottle of its inspiration that's already had months to mature and mellow.

An Honest Note on the Match

This is a genuinely well-loved comparison, with multiple reviewers calling it around 90% of the character of its inspiration and one describing it as smelling "exactly" the same on first spray. It's not universally perfect, though: a few reviewers found the dry-down runs sweeter and slightly more cloying than the original prefers, and several note picking up woody or patchouli-like undertones that aren't listed in the official notes. If you love a rich, sugary vanilla and don't need pixel-perfect accuracy, the community response here is some of the most enthusiastic in the whole gourmand category.
