ATELIER MATERI Vanille Carbone is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025, created by Natalie Gracia-Cetto. Vanille Carbone opens with Pepper and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Leather and Frankincense, and dries down to a base of Vanilla. ATELIER MATERI's Vanille Carbone carries an Acquired verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Some revel in its deep, spicy vanilla, whilst others find it downright offensive, smelling of anything from corn to shisha pipes. Not one for a blind buy, clearly.

Given its strong leathery and smoky vanilla accords, this scent leans heavily towards evening and cooler weather occasions. It's likely too intense for an office setting and definitely not suited for sport, but its unique character makes it a standout choice for dates and formal events.

About

Vanille Carbone opens with a bold, peppery kick from both black and pink pepper, offering a fresh spice that's quickly joined by the leathery, smoky richness of frankincense. This intoxicating blend then settles into a deep, pervasive vanilla base, weaving together an amber-sweet, subtly powdery finish. It's a dark and complex vanilla, far from traditional gourmand territory.
