Vanilla Aube
Vanilla Aube by Ormonde Jayne is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with pistachio, cardamom, black pepper and pomegranate, moves into iris, cashmeran and fig and dries down to sandalwood, vetiver, ambergris and vanilla. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Pistachio Green, salty and creamy. Nutty without being heavy.
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Black Pepper Dry and prickly. Gives a fragrance grip and a bit of bite.
- Pomegranate Tart, juicy and jewel-red. Sharper than most berries.
Heart
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Cashmeran Musky, woody and slightly spicy. Velvety and very persistent.
- Fig Green, milky and jammy at once. One of the most interesting fruits in perfume.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Ambergris Salty, animal, sun-warmed skin. Marine and musky at once.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
