Vanille Caviar
Vanille Caviar by BDK Parfums is an unisex eau de parfum from 2025 in the niche price tier. It opens with blackcurrant and cardamom, moves into vanilla, cocoa and osmanthus and dries down to bourbon vanilla, peru balsam and labdanum. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Blackcurrant Tart, dark and slightly catty. Adds bite to florals.
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
Heart
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Cocoa Dry, dusty chocolate. Bitter rather than sweet.
- Osmanthus Apricot-and-leather floral. Unusual, warm and very wearable.
Dry-down
- Bourbon Vanilla Richer, boozier vanilla. Darker than the standard version.
- Peru Balsam Vanilla and cinnamon resin. Deep and syrupy.
- Labdanum Sticky, leathery resin. Dark honey and old books.
