Adult, portable vanilla
Oh how long I have been looking for a portable vanilla!
Now I have found it.
One thing up front, yes, I have slowly become a vanilla junkie. I am downright addicted to vanilla perfumes of all kinds and am always thrilled what you can conjure from vanilla so everything. Previously, I always thought vanilla was something for sweet teenage fragrance bombs, just heavy and intrusive.
But Vaniglia Fior the Mandorlo shows - like so many other vanilla perfumes - that this does not have to be. Rather, we have here a grown-up vanilla that knows what it wants and does not smell like squeaky candy vanilla sugar, but exudes elegance and strength.
The whole Acca Kappa creates with bergamot, which, unlike it suggests, yet remains quite long on the skin. The refreshing note is perceptible for about four hours and gives the vanilla into the heart note a summery, cool support.
In the further course of the fragrance, it becomes nice and creamy thanks to the almond blossom. Delicate flowers are that, slightly reminiscent of honey. Vanilla is clearly in the foreground, but the flowers make the fragrance experience more complex and softer. Don't misunderstand: the almond blossom is by no means floral. But rather it warms up the vanilla and makes it elegant.
Then after about 6 hours we have the base: almost smoky sandalwood and tonka bean let the fragrance appear a little harder than at the beginning. There we have the adult, strong. Amber and musk give at the end a little animalik to it - very interesting and so far never smelled at another vanilla perfume.
Overall, the fragrance lasts all day. Once applied in the morning is enough to perceive the whole day the carefully changing scent.
The flacon looks super high quality. The glass is heavy in the hand and the cap sits nice and tight on the flacon. The spray mist is also nice! No short "Pft", but a nice long "Pfffffffffffft" for connoisseurs ;)
