Matiere Premiere Vanilla Powder Extrait
About this fragrance
Not the dessert vanilla. The couture one.
Matiere Premiere Vanilla Powder Extrait is Aurelien Guichard's restraint exercise, an extrait concentration of bourbon and Madagascar vanilla absolutes lifted by iris and violet, with no caramel and no sugar in sight. It smells like cashmere knit pressed against warm skin.
The opening is a creamy vanilla brightened by a green violet leaf that keeps it from going gourmand. Iris and tonka give the heart its powdery, almost cosmetic refinement. The drydown is sandalwood, white musk, and benzoin smoothing the whole thing into a six to eight hour skin scent that people will quietly try to identify on you.
Daily wear, layering, signature scent for vanilla lovers who are tired of sugar. A full bottle is $345+. Try a 5ml first.

Size guide: which decant should I get?
New to this scent? Start with 2ml. It's enough to wear it several times and see how it develops on your skin.
Already love it? 5ml is the best value per wear and fits in a pocket or bag.
Daily signature? 10ml gives you a month or more of regular wear for a fraction of the full bottle.
