The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Vanilified by Kerosene is a bold statement in the world of fragrances, launched in 2026. Created by perfumer John Pegg, known for his innovative approach to scent creation, this Oriental Vanilla fragrance is unapologetically rich and indulgent. The composition opens with an intense vanilla note that immediately draws you in, followed by a warm blend of cacao and powdery musk that creates a cocooning effect. The warmth of the spicy notes adds depth without overpowering the sweet heart of the fragrance.

How to wear it

Vanilified is best applied to pulse points for maximum warmth. It blooms over the course of an hour, so give it time to settle before heading out. This fragrance is better suited for evenings or cooler weather when its rich, warm notes can shine without overpowering.
