The story behind the bottle.
Vanille Caviar by BDK Parfums, crafted by perfumer Alexandra Carlin, is an Oriental Vanilla fragrance that seamlessly blends the richness of vanilla with warm spices and balsamic notes. The opening introduces calamus and cassis, providing a subtle yet intriguing contrast to the heart's osmanthus and vanille, which are further enhanced by the depth of cacao and labdanum in the base. This composition is a proof of BDK Parfums' commitment to creating distinctive and narrative-driven fragrances.
Apply two sprays to pulse points — this fragrance blooms slowly, revealing its full depth after about an hour. It's best enjoyed in cooler settings where the warmth of the vanilla and cacao can shine without overpowering.
