obvious parfums UNE VANILLE 100 ml $140
“Vanilla is a universal ingredient, the fruit of the wild orchid. We wanted to return to this exotic fruit, to this black pod that is happily opened to release its sensual sweetness. By moving away from the gourmet and very luscious vanilla, we restore its ancestral depth. Its scent is unctuous and powerful, sensual but not tacky. In Une Vanille, black Madagascar vanilla is accompanied by tonka bean with almond facets. A final touch that transmutes the original scent of this fruit whose aroma plays alternately between sweetness and power, evidence and mystery, so natural and supernatural at the same time. “ -from the brandI appreciate this type of vanilla. Smells much more like La Nuit de L’Orchidee Pierre Guillaume Paris in terms of vanilla profile (which I adore) but without the leather note. Of course it’s linear, but that’s the vibe of the brand. The flowery (almost) vanilla is the one man show which makes it marvelous as a layering piece if you choose. Box included.
