Dossier Aquatic Vanilla is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024. Aquatic Vanilla opens with Red Fruits, Sea Water, and Rose, settles into a heart of Orchid, Vanilla, and Coconut, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, and Benzoin. Dossier's Aquatic Vanilla carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

If a photorealistic beach day for the senses is what you're after, Aquatic Vanilla delivers. It’s a beautifully blended, non-gourmand vanilla that’s a crowd-pleaser for those who love summery vibes without the sunscreen cliché.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • 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

Imagine salty sea spray mingling with a hint of delicate rose and red fruits, leading into a creamy heart of vanilla, exotic orchid, and a subtle whisper of coconut. The base then grounds this aquatic fantasy with warm sandalwood, soft musk, and resinous benzoin, evoking the scent of sun-warmed skin after a day by the ocean. It's a sweet, breezy, and effortlessly fresh take on vanilla.
