What do reviewers say about Sel-Vanille and Levante?
Vanilla and the sea shouldn't work together. They do here. It's marine-forward enough to surprise, vanilla-backed enough to comfort. Most vanillas stay indoors. This one goes swimming.Sel-Vanille
Levante earns its name, feeling like that first morning light breaking over the water. The aquatic opening is genuine, not synthetic-smelling, and the transition to warm woods and sweet drydown feels.Levante
