How it wears, from first spray to dry-down.

A fragrance changes on your skin over the day. This is what you'll notice, and roughly when.

  1. First spray SpicesA soft, warm spice comes first, just enough to wake the vanilla up and keep it from being too sweet.
  2. As it settles VanillaThen it's vanilla, and plenty of it, dark and creamy like a split vanilla pod rather than a cupcake.
  3. The dry-down Amber and muskAmber and soft musk wrap around the vanilla as it settles.

Does it smell exactly like Vanille Planifolia?

It's our interpretation, not a copy. vanilla at the heart, amber and musk underneath.

How many sprays should I use?

Two or three is plenty. It's extrait, so start with less than you would with an eau de parfum: one on each side of the neck, or one on your chest under your shirt.

What does the two-tone label mean?

Every Inspired bottle is labelled for who it's made for: black for him, white for her and two-tone for anyone. Vanilla Absolute wears the two-tone label, so it's made for anyone.

Where is it made?

Adelaide. Australian made, bottle to box.

How fast is shipping?

Dispatched same or next business day. $10 Standard, free from $100, or $15 Express.
