Launched in 2024 and crafted by perfumer Ane Ayo, The Collection Exhilarating Vanilla is a unisex fragrance that reimagines the warmth of vanilla with a touch of unexpected complexity. Opening with a powdery sweetness, it quickly transitions into a rich balsamic heart, where woody notes add depth to the signature vanilla accord. This composition is designed to feel both familiar and new — inviting yet slightly enigmatic.

Application Tips
This fragrance is best applied in two sprays to each wrist for a balanced wear. The vanilla notes may seem immediate but settle into a deeper base after an hour or so, making it ideal for evening wear when you want something that evolves with the mood.
