Tihota

Tihota is a vanilla absolute, like the kind that you buy at the grocery store, it's unique in this way. Has a nice sweetness not overly cloying. The sillage is great I can smell it by the end of the day. I won't be purchasing a full bottle. It's too expensive for the lack of complexity.

Straightforward vanilla gourmand but doesnt last two hours on my skin.

Second bottle and counting. Tihota is one of those rare scents you can wear completely alone or dump into literally anything else to add a vanilla boost — it plays well with others but doesn’t need them. Pure, warm, no fuss, no weird sugary candy thing happening. Top 5 vanilla in my collection, easily. I will be buying this forever, right alongside Bianco Latte. Sorry to my wallet in advance.

my favorite warm vanilla extract vanilla. very cozy!

Very nice. Not amazing. Great size for test drive.

Amazing straight-forward vanilla bean scent

Unfortunately, this perfume is not all that. It is a pleasant vanilla but it is not very strong or memorable. You can achive the same scent with a fragrance between $20-50. Additionally, the scent is somewhat mature. Not in the way a grandmother would smell, but just not something that would suit someone in their 20s. Given the price, I imagine this was crafted for an older audience in mind. Regardless, I am happy I was able to smell the fragrance, but sadly it is nothing to write home about.

Very Good scent. I got this and a couple others from the list and this one smells the best.

This smells absolutely divine. The best vanilla bean extract scent I’ve ever smelled. It’s so rich and beautiful. Definitely expensive but worth it to me. The first super expensive niche I decided I had to have after a sample

I got into fragrances maybe a year ago when I first found scent split. At the time I was underemployed, barely getting by, and super stressed. So one day as some inexpensive retail therapy, I bought a bunch of samples when I stumbled upon scent split (I had no idea decant sites existed). Tihota was one of those samples, but I didn’t know about the hype. When I tried it the first time, I thought it was pretty…. But as the day wore on, I couldn’t stop smelling my wrist, it was just so so so so so delicious. Anyway, 2 years later, I’m finally working back in my field, and finally was able to afford the full bottle as a gift for myself. I love it. It’s my favorite perfume. Now as I’ve explored more, I am not AS obsessed but I wear it probably 80% of the time. But I should describe this scent… it’s caramelized sugar and vanilla. That’s it. I don’t get much else but that caramelized note is complex, teeeeeeeeeeny bit nutty?, sweet and dark but not burnt. It’s sweet but I don’t think it’s super sweet. Reminds me of the smell when you are caramelizing a crème brûlée (duh… that’s caramelized sugar 🤦‍♀️). It usually lasts ~8-10 hrs. I didn’t think it projected that much but my office mate commented on it (liking it a lot :) )
