Sweet · Sensuality · Exoticism
A sensual greediness.
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.
Focus on the black vanilla absolute from Madagascar
A quintessential note in perfumery, vanilla balances between creamy sweetness, woody and spicy undertones, with hints of leather, caramel, and tobacco. Mysterious and exotic, it brings warmth, sensuality, and lasting depth to a fragrance.
Our vanilla absolute is sourced from the Sava region of Madagascar, the world’s vanilla capital, where generations have mastered its cultivation. At dawn, from October to December, skilled growers carefully hand-pollinate the flowers, ensuring a successful harvest. After being collected, the pods are processed and extracted in workshops in Grasse. Due to its rarity and high demand, its price can reach up to $600 per kilo.
