Atelier Des Ors Novae Vanilla is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Marie Salamagne. Novae Vanilla opens with Pebbles and Mimosa, settles into a heart of Vanilla, and dries down to a base of Musk and Amberwood. Atelier Des Ors's Novae Vanilla carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

A divisive vanilla bomb, Novae Vanilla is either a groundbreaking mineral-tinged gourmand or an amberwood nightmare. If you don't mind a bit of a synthetic edge and appreciate a cool, airy vanilla, this might just be your new obsession. Otherwise, proceed with caution and a healthy dose of skepticism.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

The strong, potentially long-lasting amberwood and vanilla accords make Novae Vanilla less suitable for a confined office setting. It's better suited for evenings out or casual wear, where its warmth and complexity can shine without overwhelming others. The longevity suggestions from reviews indicate it will last through a date or casual outing, but likely too much for high activity.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Novae Vanilla opens with a peculiar mineral sharpness, a gritty, cool edge that quickly cedes ground to a fluffy, almost powdery mimosa. This unique opening then softens into a rich, natural-smelling vanilla - think bourbon and Madagascar varieties, offering depth without being overly sweet. The base, however, introduces a potentially polarising amberwood and musk, which some find comforting and others denounce as screechy and synthetic, clinging steadfastly to the skin.
