Vanilla Powder is an absolute beast, with nuclear projection and longevity - one or two sprays are enough to fill a room. This makes it completely unsuitable for the office but fantastic for dates or formal evenings where you want to make a statement.

About

Imagine a plush, sweet vanilla, softly dusted with coconut flakes and delicate heliotrope, then underpinned by a deep, creamy musk and the mystical warmth of palo santo. It's a sophisticated, almost lactonic vanilla that balances its inherent sweetness with an aromatic, woody depth, but some find it overwhelmed by sharp, synthetic notes and musky intensity. It’s an evolving scent that promises a soft, powdery dry-down, but only if your skin agrees.
