Yann Vasnier

"Vanille Fatale is a dark, opulent vanilla fragrance built around boozy, smoky, resinous, and woody facets. Its opening combines rum, incense-like resins, saffron, coriander, citrus, and myrrh for a warm and complex introduction. The heart adds barley, coffee, plum, floral notes, and aromatic nuances, giving the composition depth beyond a straightforward sweet vanilla. Madagascar vanilla becomes more prominent in the drydown, joined by suede, tobacco, mahogany, patchouli, oakmoss, and violet. The overall character is luxurious, sensual, and richly textured, with a distinctly autumnal and evening-oriented presence. It is designed as a sophisticated unisex fragrance rather than a simple gourmand scent."
