LINGERING NOTES: Vanilla Bean extract CO2, Musk

ORIGIN: Italy

SCENT PROFILE: Amber

Experience a vanilla which is warm, spicy, resinous and rather intriguing. Yes, there is sweetness here, but it seems almost incidental to the main showcase of fruity, spicy, and woodier facets.

"For the Master’s Collection, I wanted to create a perfume that expresses all the richness of Vanilla and its multiple facets. This creation is built around an LMR Vanilla bean of sublime quality, of which I have amplified the most subtle tones. This Bourbon Vanilla, grown in the heart of the Indian Ocean, is extracted using CO2, a cold extraction technique that reveals the full spectrum of its gourmand, floral, leathery and spicy notes. Its leathery character is reinforced by saffron and its addictiveness by the tonka bean, while the enveloping layers of incense add the texture of a mystical aura".  Dominique Ropion
