Yves Rocher Vanille Noire is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2010, created by Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud. Vanille Noire opens with Mandarin, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Mimosa, and Vanilla, and dries down to a base of Cedar. Yves Rocher's Vanille Noire carries a Favourite verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

This isn't your average saccharine vanilla. Vanille Noire is a complex, woody interpretation that’s divisive; some find it a sophisticated, natural vanilla dream, others are left wanting more ‘noir’ or complain of poor performance. Definitely don't expect a gourmand.

About

Vanille Noire opens with a delicate whisper of mandarin, quickly layered with the true star of the show: a deep, woody vanilla. Mimosa and orange blossom add a soft, powdery floral elegance, preventing any cloying sweetness, while cedar anchors the scent, lending a slightly smoky, almost boozy depth. It dries down to a comforting, sophisticated vanilla that’s far from edible.
