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.
