Our verdict on Vanille Caviar: Favourite

This one's a divisive beast. Some adore its sophisticated, non-gourmand vanilla depth, while others recoil from what they perceive as a challenging, even 'fishy' scent. Definitely not a blind buy, but for those it clicks with, it's an addictive, unique vanilla experience.

About

Vanille Caviar opens with a peculiar, almost waxy greenness from redcurrant leaf and calamus, quickly evolving into a rich, dark vanilla heart. Cacao pod and osmanthus add a nuanced bitterness and leathery floral tint, preventing it from leaning too sweet. The drydown is a balsamic, woody embrace of labdanum and Peru Balsam, with an underlying amber warmth that gives it a unique, almost salty edge, confounding many.
