Vanilla Shot by Olfactive Studio was launched in 2018 and crafted by the renowned perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour. This fragrance opens with a striking combination of saffron and aldehydes, creating an aromatic and spicy contrast that immediately grabs attention. The heart reveals dried fruits and coriander, adding a warm sweetness to the composition. As it settles into its base notes of vanilla, myrrh, benzoin, and caramel, Vanilla Shot becomes an enveloping warmth, reminiscent of a comforting embrace.

Application Tips
Apply Vanilla Shot in light layers — the aldehydic opening can be intense initially but fades into a rich vanilla base over time. It pairs well with sweaters or layered clothing to enhance its warmth and coziness.
