The Raconteur Killr Vanillr is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Craig Andrade. Killr Vanillr opens with White Chocolate, Iris, and Vanilla, and settles into a heart of Sandalwood, Vetiver, Patchouli, and Licorice. The Raconteur's Killr Vanillr carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Killr Vanillr is a divisive one - some find it a unique, sophisticated vanilla, while others are put off by a strong, almost rubbery liquorice note. Definitely not a blind buy, but worth sampling if you're after a beast-mode, unusual vanilla.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

This is a beast-mode fragrance with significant sillage, making it less suitable for a professional office environment. Its warm, sophisticated, and sensual character makes it ideal for dates and evening formal events, while being a bit heavy for casual daytime wear or sports.

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

Killr Vanillr opens with a creamy, almost edible blend of white chocolate and a buttery orris, immediately softened by a rich, luxurious vanilla. This sweet embrace soon gives way to a complex heart of earthy patchouli and dry vetiver, deepened by the resinous warmth of labdanum. A smooth, woody sandalwood underpins the composition, creating a savoury and sophisticated take on a classic gourmand profile.
