Xplicit Vanilla

Mexican vanilla and a chocolate accord open the composition. A heart of brown sugar, oud, sandalwood and cedarwood precedes a base of tonka bean, amber and benzoin.

Un Bois Vanille

Black vanilla, coconut and liquorice over smoked guaiac wood. A dark gourmand, the opposite of supermarket sweet vanillas.
