Real talk
A vanilla that doesn't announce itself. The bergamot keeps things bright, the powdery drydown keeps things close. If you've wanted to love vanilla but found the usual suspects too sweet.True Vanilla
Not another sweet vanilla. Mon Guerlain earns its sweetness from lavender's coolness cutting through the warmth, the herbaceous bite that keeps the vanilla from going flat.Mon Guerlain
