What do reviewers say about Vanille Antique and Merci Cafe'?
This is not your typical vanilla fragrance. Byredo builds it with plum and musk in the opening, adds complexity through labdanum in the heart, and lets amber and vanilla create something that feels.Vanille Antique
Here's the thing about coffee fragrances, they can smell like a barista's apron by noon. This one doesn't. The coconut milk and madeleine keep it soft, almost powdery.Merci Cafe'
