I see that highbrow is getting some new fans of the vanillas, I can say I have had them both and adore them equally! It would truly be hard for me to pick between the two tho they are both totally different. They are good out of the mail box, but develop such richness and complexity after a couple weeks. I just love it when something is good and keeps getting better!
there fore it would def be my recommendation to
buy the larger bottles, I learned my lesson the hard way and when it they really started to peak I ran out
The same goes for the creme brûlée, I was not real sure about it when I first got it, but it quickly grew on me and soon I could not put it down! One of my favorite things is to put the van bourbon bean with the creme brûlée, it's total flavor bliss!!
I have had a few vanillas and some were good, but they seem to be single note and lack some depth. Not highbrow, they are in a league of their own.
As a matter of fact if anyone thinks they have a better vanilla I would love to exchange 3 ml samples, I would put highbrows up against anyone, anyday. For one I love to try new things and for another, I would love to turn someone new onto what I consider to be a wonderful find
Btw a couple pages back someone suggested putting the orange and something together, going for a push pop? Did that happen? Do tell!
I received my package yesterday, but alas, my darn cartos are not here
so I can't try the cheesecake or choc cake w/ Bavarian cream yet. I can only smell them......it's a cruel, cruel world....Lol
