The fragrance is widely recognized for its impressive longevity and presence, often outperforming other entries in the Aerin lineup which are sometimes noted for being more fleeting.
It is frequently categorized as a winter and fall staple, with the community favoring it for evening wear and special occasions due to its deep resinous and spicy profile.
While it shares the DNA of the original Tangier Vanille, enthusiasts note that the "d’Or" version is significantly more intense, with the added myrrh and saffron moving it away from "daily office scent" territory and into a more mature, evening-ready category.
Some collectors compare the scent profile—specifically the spicy, woody vanilla—to high-end niche offerings like Nishane’s Ani, though this is considered more floral and classically feminine.
Value opinions are generally positive for those seeking a "performance-heavy" vanilla, as the scent is often cited as being potent enough that a few sprays last through the night.
