Vanilla Vibe

In everyday terms

Plum and freesia over tuberose and vanilla with amber, labdanum and a touch of oud.

Plum

Dark, juicy and sweet, like plum jam

Freesia

Light, fresh and peppery flower

Tuberose

Creamy, heady white flowers, like a wedding bouquet

Vanilla

Sweet and creamy, like vanilla ice cream or custard

Amber

Warm, sweet and resinous, like soft incense glowing in a room

Labdanum

Sticky, leathery amber

Cashmere Wood

Soft, musky wood, like a warm wool blanket

Oud

Deep, smoky oud, like the turare and bakhoor burned in Hausa homes during Sallah

How it wears

In Nigerian heat, most perfumes project more but fade faster. Spray some on your clothes to make it last longer.
