Vanilla Embers

I am in love. This has such a unique vanilla tone to it. The cardamom, orange flower and upcycled turmeric gives it such a different vibe. Very hard to explain. It has a spicy, almost woody warmth to it that makes you feel so warm and cozy but still has that little oomph to lift your spirits and capture the attention of those who are close to you. Definitely one of my favorite new fragrances to date and I have quite an extensive collection of both designer and niche. The owners of this company are also extremely engaged and kind. I emailed them regarding something about my order and they were extremely friendly and accommodating. Love the mission of this company to be eco friendly and promote recycling and sustainability.

For reference: I’m a woman in her late 40’s, and I got this as a sample size. I chose this based on reviews, and the notes listed. Opens lightly as a vanilla floral with gentle spices. As it dries down, the spices come softly forward, creating a pleasant medley. Slightly more creamy and spicy/woody than sweet. Gentle and lovely from beginning to end. Stays intimate throughout. This would be good for day or night, casual wear or date night. It’s slightly more cold weather-leaning, but could honestly be worn any time of year. The only negative is that it only lasts a couple of hours, so will need to be reapplied. Love this! Will be getting more.

A beautiful, warm, spiced, white floral vanilla. This fragrance made me emotional when I first smelled it cause something about it was so nostalgic and comforting to me. I wouldn’t call this gourmand and I think it’s a great option for anyone looking for a non-cupcake vanilla. It’s at the very top of my wishlist right now!

When I got this perfume, I imagined a scent like By The Fireplace--smoky, spicy, something very warm. This scent is Very different from that, but I love it. There is very little trace of smoke and it is much sweeter to my nose. This isn't quite a gourmand vanilla, but it is extremely cozy and comforting.

A spicy sweet vanilla that is NOT too vanilla. Absolutely gorgeous and addicting.
