vanilla

The warm, sweet, slightly boozy backbone of countless gourmand fragrances. Real vanilla is darker and more complex than the bakery extract, closer to the inside of an old wooden cigar box than to a cupcake. The note that makes most fragrances feel comforting.

Also known as: madagascan vanilla, vanilla bean, vanilla absolute, tahitian vanilla
