Salum Parfums Vanilla Monsoon is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Sofia Bardelli. Vanilla Monsoon opens with Rain, Orange, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Sea Water, Fruity, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Vanilla, and Benzoin. Salum Parfums's Vanilla Monsoon carries an Acquired verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

This isn't your average vanilla; it's a divisive aquatic beast. You'll either adore its unique, storm-like freshness and salty depth, or you'll be recoiling from its 'medicinal' edge. Definitely not a blind buy, but for those who get it, it's a masterpiece.

About

Vanilla Monsoon opens with a jolt of spiced orange and the surprisingly fresh, clean scent of rain, quickly leading into a unique marine heart. Here, a sweet vanilla bean is intertwined with aquatic notes and a hint of jasmine, creating a 'minty' or 'cough syrup' quality for some. The base settles into a rich, earthy vanilla with benzoin lending a resinous sweetness and patchouli adding depth, perfectly balancing the initial aquatic lift.
