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.

With moderate longevity and sillage, Vaninight is subtle enough for close encounters but perhaps too warm and sensual for a typical office environment. It shines in cooler weather, making it ideal for date nights and cozy casual settings.

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.

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

Vaninight opens with a soft, powdery vanilla, quickly joined by a rich, candied amber. This isn't a straightforward gourmand, though; hints of jasmine add a delicate floralcy, while an unexpected 'dry' or 'leathery' note weaves through, keeping it from being overly sweet. The dry down settles into a warm, resinous embrace, a sophisticated take on classic comfort.
