Laboratorio Olfattivo Vanhera is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Luca Maffei. Vanhera opens with Bergamot, Pink Pepper, Sichuan Pepper, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Cashmere Wood, Sandalwood, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Woody, Musk, Amber, and Ambroxan. Laboratorio Olfattivo's Vanhera carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one is a real Marmite scent, polarising opinion with its intense synthetic amber and pepper. Some find it a screeching chemical bomb, a migraine in a bottle, while others adore its unique, non-gourmand spicy vanilla warmth. Sample first, your nose will thank you.

Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its bold, warm spicy, and amber-heavy profile, coupled with strong projection for many, makes it less ideal for office wear where discretion is key. The sensual and mysterious vibe is perfect for dates and evening events, while its unique character can suit casual wear for those who want to make a statement.

About

Vanhera opens with a potent blast of sharp Sichuan and pink pepper, spiced with aromatic cardamom, quickly giving way to a rich, dark vanilla. Woody notes of sandalwood and cashmere, alongside warm cinnamon, form a cosy embrace. The base settles into a lingering blend of musky amber and ambroxan, adding depth and a controversial synthetic edge.
