Real talk
Most vanilla fragrances don't challenge you. Davana & Vanille does. The davana opens bitter, almost medicinal, a sharp contrast to the sweet fruit. It softens into warm bourbon vanilla and stays.Davana & Vanille
Leather and rum come together with real skill in this composition. The leather reads smooth, the rum adds genuine warmth, and the tonka bean keeps everything from getting too heavy.John Varvatos XX Elixir
