Vanille Exclusive
Vanille Exclusive by Mancera is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with osmanthus, peach, brown sugar and whipped cream, moves into tuberose, jasmine and violet and dries down to vanilla, amber, sandalwood and white musk. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Osmanthus Apricot-and-leather floral. Unusual, warm and very wearable.
- Peach Fuzzy, warm and slightly creamy. Soft rather than sharp.
- Brown Sugar Molasses-rich sweetness. Warmer and deeper than white sugar.
- Whipped Cream Airy, milky sweetness. Light rather than dense.
Heart
- Tuberose Creamy, waxy and enormous. The loudest white flower.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Violet Powdery, sweet and a bit retro. Parma Violets in flower form.
Dry-down
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
