Vanilla Absolue
Vanilla Absolue by Tauer Perfumes is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with spices, geranium and plum, moves into vanilla, rose and tobacco leaf and dries down to labdanum, patchouli, coumarin and ambergris. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Spices Warm spice with no single spice named.
- Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
- Plum Dark, wine-like and slightly stewed. Autumnal.
Heart
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Tobacco Leaf Greener and drier than cured tobacco. Hay-like.
Dry-down
- Labdanum Sticky, leathery resin. Dark honey and old books.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Coumarin Hay, almond and vanilla in one molecule. The heart of every fougère.
- Ambergris Salty, animal, sun-warmed skin. Marine and musky at once.
