NEST New York Madagascar Vanilla is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025. Madagascar Vanilla opens with Vanilla, settles into a heart of Orchid, and dries down to a base of Coconut. NEST New York's Madagascar Vanilla carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one is a real split-decision. For some, it's the ultimate 'grown-up vanilla' - sophisticated, creamy, and long-lasting. For others, it's synthetic, acrid, or just plain boring. Prepare for love-it-or-hate-it vibes, with many finding it a solid base for layering.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

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

Madagascar Vanilla opens with a rich, almost edible sweetness, dominated by a warm, inviting vanilla bean. A subtle creaminess of coconut emerges, blending seamlessly to offer a soft, lactonic quality that avoids being overly cloying. Underneath, a delicate orchid note provides a faint floral lift, preventing it from veering into purely gourmand territory, eventually settling into a cozy, powdery vanilla skin scent.
