Vanilla Powder

Vanilla Powder perfume inspired by Matière Première is a unique fragrance that plays with the contrast between sweetness and dry, earthy elements. It centers around a rich, gourmand vanilla that is layered with coconut and hints of palo santo, giving it a creamy yet slightly woody profile. While some users describe the fragrance as having a powdery, nostalgic feel, it is not overly sweet, avoiding the typical "dessert-like" vanilla that some might expect.

The opening can come off sharp, with a more intense, almost metallic note, which mellows into a softer, more comforting blend of bourbon vanilla and coconut. The palo santo adds a smoky depth, making it less sugary and more sophisticated, though some reviewers feel it leans a bit too dry or linear for their tastes.

This perfume has excellent longevity, often lasting through the day with a powerful sillage that leaves a lasting impression. It's an excellent choice for vanilla lovers looking for something nuanced and long-lasting but may not be the best for those seeking a sweet, traditional vanilla scent.
