Vanilla Stallion

by Ilias Ermenidis , Hamid Merati-Kashani

Alexandria Fragrances Vanilla Stallion is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Ilias Ermenidis and Hamid Merati-Kashani. Vanilla Stallion opens with Orange Blossom, Cardamom, Cinnamon, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Elemi and Vanilla, and dries down to a base of Praline, Guaiac Wood, Musk, and Ambroxan. Alexandria Fragrances's Vanilla Stallion carries an Acquired verdict, a musky-led wear.

This musky vanilla beast is a winter warmer, though it's polarising to say the least. Some call it an absolute clone-worthy triumph, others think it's a glorified mosquito repellent. Try before you buy, obviously, but for those who love it, prepare for compliments.

Its excellent longevity and strong projection, as noted by reviewers, make it less suitable for office wear. The sweet, spicy, and musky profile, particularly in its 'criminally great' dry-down, lends itself perfectly to date nights and colder-weather casual outings, with some appropriateness for formal events where a bold statement is desired.

About

Vanilla Stallion bursts open with a spicy-sweet mix of orange blossom and cardamom, spiced up with a kick of cinnamon and a touch of bright bergamot. The heart quickly melts into a creamy, resinous vanilla, with the resinous elemi adding depth. The dry-down is where the magic happens for many, a rich blend of praline, smoky guaiac wood, and a heavy dose of musk and ambroxan, creating a long-lasting, alluring trail. It's a sweet, musky, and warm spicy affair from start to finish.
