Spiritueuse Double Vanille

Spiritueuse Double Vanille opens with a dry, resinous incense laced with pink pepper and bergamot, a bright but austere beginning that soon yields to a heart of cedar, ylang-ylang, rose, and jasmine. This floral-woody core adds texture and depth, preventing the vanilla from becoming simplistic. The base is where the scent earns its name: a lush, boozy vanilla enriched with benzoin and rum, creating a warm, balsamic, and slightly gourmand finish that lingers for hours.

Collectors who appreciate rich orientals with a pronounced vanilla note will find this compelling. It suits those who enjoy fragrances like Guerlain's own Shalimar or other boozy vanillas, but with a more direct, less powdery approach. Ideal for evening wear in cooler months, it can also be worn by anyone who loves a comforting yet sophisticated scent. The 2016 edition remains a sought-after bottle for its balance of incense and sweetness, making it a worthy addition to any serious collection.

Guerlain Spiritueuse Double Vanille 以乳香、粉紅胡椒和佛手柑開場，帶出乾燥樹脂感；中調轉為雪松、依蘭、玫瑰與茉莉，賦予花香木質層次。基調是濃郁的香草、安息香與蘭姆酒，溫暖、帶酒香與微美食感，持久力強。適合喜愛東方調、尤其是香草愛好者，秋冬季夜晚或正式場合皆宜。2016年版平衡了乳香的煙燻與香草的甜潤，是收藏家值得考慮的經典。
