A spark of Black Pepper and Pink Pepper cuts through the air, quickly warmed by the resinous glow of Elemi. The opening feels spicy and electric, with a subtle aromatic sharpness that draws you closer before the darker heart comes forward. Olibanum brings a smoky, incense-like richness, while Saffron adds a golden warmth that gives the fragrance its distinctive depth.
On the skin, the spice gradually softens into something darker and smoother. The smoky character of Olibanum lingers beneath the Saffron, creating a warm contrast that feels sensual without becoming too heavy. There’s a quiet tension between the fiery spices and the creamy sweetness waiting underneath.
Then Bourbon Vanilla melts into the dry down, wrapped in supple Suede and grounded by dry Cedar. Those who are looking for an alternative as YSL Babycat dupe or anyone who loves creamy Vanilla wrapped in smoky spice, soft leather-like Suede, and dry woods, this scent is a must-have!🖤

My favorite perfume for now!!! I haven’t even finished my first bottle and I already buy a second bottle! Not your typical vanilla. A very sexy vanilla
Ima be honest I was skeptical at first, because when I initially sprayed it straight out of the box, it smelt like straight pepper, but after a few days of letting it sit the smell matured and it smells like a very warm and cozy vanilla, the pepper not to overpowering now, 10/10 blind buy would definitely recommend to anyone who loves a warm, spicy vanilla fragrance.
Bought this as a total blind buy, and upon the initial spray my immediate thought was not positive. Then the dry down hit, and every time I moved I'd catch a whiff that would cause me to bury my face into my arm to breathe the scent more fully and deeply in. After months of sitting this scent is even more intoxicating and the opening is just as pleasing as the dry down.
I blind bought this fragrance not knowing what to expect. I have never smelled the og I took the chance anyway and in my opinion a very smooth sexy fragrance love it.
I let it sit for a month and it’s spectacular! On skin I mostly get the leather, spice from saffron and pepper, and that’s it. But in the air my nose picks up that vanilla and maybe the resin and it all comes together to form a toasted marshmallow effect? I dunno, but it’s lovely! And the sillage is impressive, just a few sprays on my wrists and I can smell it so easily as I move I could swear I sprayed it on my neck. Also wonderful winter option. I will definitely get more of this in the future!
Love love love ! Definitely a cool weather scent . But I did bathe myself in it in a 70 degree weather and went to an old navy store ! When I came to the front to pay a young man said you smell so goooddd what is it? I said babycat ysl but it’s a dupe wink wink ! And he instantly went to the dua site . So yesss it leaves that impression on people ! If you love a spicy vanilla that one is for you.i am an over sprayer so i always choked myself but yes if you don’t like spice one or two spray in the middle of your chest should be enough.BUB worthy ❤️
One of the best vanilla I've ever smelt. It's warm, creamy, resinous which gives the vanilla a rich smell. It's not harsh, or too sweet like other vanillas. It's beautiful, sensual and addictive. I love it! And it smelled great when I got it. So I know the more it settles the better.
This is an absolute love for me… when I wear this fragrance I can’t stop smelling myself. It’s warm and inviting and mix well with some of my other date night fragrances. As a man this is an easy grab for a vanilla scent that is classes and captivating… this will always be in my collection. 10/10 scent, 10/10 date night, 10/10 special occasions can be worn spring, fall, winter and summer nights.
Always a great experience with Dua!! Quality / Shipping always on point- which is major . As for Vanilla Baby , it is awesome. Very subtle differences between the OG (babycat) and this interpretation . Nailed it! It’s just a beautiful fragrance overall, I will be getting a back up bottle of this one.

A little too strong for me so I gave to my son. This is a deceptive fragrance. It goes on smelling very leathery/smokey then dries down to a perfect vanilla fragrance for anyone that appreciates sweet & masculine.
The scent last 10+ hours on him, as do most of the fragrances from DUA that I've purchased.
Has to rest a while after shipping. I sprayed it as soon as i got my box and wiped it away because I knew it needed to rest. My hand smelled like a rich vanilla ice cream for hours after. I’m looking forward to what this will smell like for a fall gala or mid winter scent!
This is an excellent vanilla. I havent had a chance to sample the OG, but I just bought three more bottles of this during the Memorial Day sale because I’ve only had it a few weeks and I already have a huge dent in it. Since I have 100+ Duas and 100+ name-brands, it usually takes me a while to dent a bottle like this!
The smoke note isnt as off putting as By the Fireplace but it overpowers the vanilla. I think i have to layer this with more vanilla to balance it out. Im going to see if my son likes it.
Vanilla Baby. Wow....what a beautiful fragrance this is.And the sent trail that it leaves is unbelievable. I received three compliments the first time I worn it and one person asked me what I was wearing.
Of course I told him about DUA Fragrances.
I love this fragrance so much I order another one. In fact I should be getting it real soon.
I never smelled Babycat,but I will one day.
I'm so happy with my purchase from DUA and yes this was a blind buy a great one at that.
Another out of the park for DUA.
This stuff is STELLAR!, and it has just become my signature fragrance. I’ve smelled the OG and Vanilla Baby comes awfully close!
It’s a warm, very sophisticated scent that starts off with a richly spiced vanilla with a deep suede note as well as resins and woods intermingled. The sillage and projection of this fragrance is extraordinary! Every time I wear it someone asks me what scent I’m wearing. It seems the word is out now that it’s out of stock—again! I’m so happy I bought 2 BUBs plus a 10 ml for travel. In my humble opinion it’s that THAT good! Sorry Mr. Ford your “Vanilla Sex” smells wonderful but has nothing on Dua’s Vanilla Baby!!
This is one of the closest clones DUA has done. The other is Champs-Élysées ( Midnight in Paris clone). If you like YSL Babycat but is too expensive then this is a good alternative to that.
I am NOT a vanilla fan! Yup there it is, but when I read the notes included in Baby Cat I HAD to test it. When I tested it I HAD to have it, but not at $350 a bottle! So looked online and in perfume forums and ended up here. Took a chance and just opened up Vanilla Baby and hesitantly sprayed…People! This Stuff WILL ROCK YOUR WORLD! A small spritz on my wrist and WOW a beautiful, deep, lucious, spicy vanilla scent filled my brain—not a sweet vanilla nor a marshmallow. The notes claim to have suede leather however I smell aged bourbon instead and it’s heavenly! The resinous tones of the fragrance just make it that much more luxurious and deep while you can also smell some of the fruitiness that olibanum can offer. Then the dry down is nothing but vanilla and the earthy, floral of saffron
If you ADORE vanilla and are looking for a vanilla fragrance that’s “different” oh my try Vanilla Baby!!! Go lightly with it as (in my opinion) a full spray would be total overkill! If it smells this good now I wonder what it will smell like after it macerated for a month!
