What do reviewers say about Vanille Noire Eau de Parfum and Empireo?
If you've dismissed vanilla as one-note, this is the counter-argument. Three varieties of the note layer into something powdery and sophisticated, not sweet enough to taste.Vanille Noire Eau de Parfum
Powdery florals don't usually come with this much warmth. Empireo starts delicate, almost airy, then settles into vanilla and amber that feels closer to skin than room.Empireo
