The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 1993 by Patricia de Nicolai for Nicolai Parfumeur Créateur, Vanille Intense is an Oriental Vanilla fragrance that stands out with its rich and enveloping character. The composition opens with a burst of orange and citrus notes, which quickly give way to the warm embrace of vanilla and immortelle. Cinnamon adds a spicy depth, while amber and powdery accords anchor the scent with a lasting warmth. This fragrance captures the essence of an indulgent treat, blending sweet and spicy elements into a harmonious whole.

How to wear it

Vanille Intense has a strong projection due to its parfum concentration. Apply one or two sprays to pulse points for a long-lasting effect that builds over time. The spicy and powdery notes make it particularly suitable for cooler evenings, where the warmth of the scent can be fully appreciated.
