Vanilla has been one of the defining notes of the recent gourmand fragrance boom, and has traditionally carried a very specific image of sweet, feminine, and familiar- a bit beige, if we're being honest.

But modern perfumery is deliberately complicating this image, and instead bringing about vanilla notes in a whole new way.

Vanilla is being paired with woods, amber, spice, florals, and citrus for a multi-dimensional era.

Vanilla isn't so vanilla anymore.

Good.

We’d like to change your mind.

Vanilla is one of fragrance’s great shapeshifters.

Put it beside woods and it becomes earthy. Add spice and it gets darker. Amber makes it richer. Creamy notes pull it closer to the skin. Tropical notes send it somewhere entirely different.

Sweet was only ever the beginning.
