Vivamor Parfums 2023 Extrait

Vanilla Vice

by Bertrand Duchaufour , Pierre Flores

Vivamor Parfums Vanilla Vice is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Bertrand Duchaufour and Pierre Flores. Vanilla Vice opens with Almond and Cognac, settles into a heart of Heliotrope, Suede, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Ambergris, Tonka Bean, and Vanilla. Vivamor Parfums's Vanilla Vice carries an Acquired verdict, a balsamic-led wear.

This is a rich, boozy vanilla that leans into its sensual, mysterious side. Some find it a dead ringer for YSL's Babycat, while others detect unpleasant rubbery or chemical notes. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent for sure, but for those who love it, it's 'good sh*t'.

Fall

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Given its strong sillage and potent nature, this isn't an office-friendly scent. Its sensuality and warmth make it perfect for dates and evening affairs, while its boldness allows for a stylish formal option. It's far too heavy and mysterious for casual daytime wear or sport.

About

Vanilla Vice opens with a boozy embrace of cognac and bitter almond, quickly settling into a luxurious heart of soft suede and smoky incense. Heliotrope adds a delicate, powdery whisper before a deep, resonant base of vanilla, ambergris, and tonka bean takes over. It's a complex, smooth vanilla that shifts from sweet and spicy to an almost animalic undertone.
