BDK Parfums Vanille Caviar EDP (Tester)

Description

Vanilla reimagined as a dense, mineral gemstone rather than a dessert. Created by Alexandra Carlin and launched in 2025, Vanille Caviar takes its name from the glossy black seeds inside a freshly split vanilla pod — a textured, artisanal approach to one of perfumery's most familiar ingredients, built to feel dry and dark rather than sugary.

Scent Character

• Woody — 38%
• Spicy — 26%
• Floral — 12%
• Fresh — 12%
• Sweet — 12%

Translation: a woody-spicy take on vanilla — more mineral and dry than sweet, with cacao and Peru balsam under a spicy-floral osmanthus heart.

FAQ

What's the difference between this and a standard retail bottle? A tester is the same authentic fragrance in simplified retail packaging (often without an outer box or with a plain cap) — the juice inside is identical.

Is Vanille Caviar for men or women? It's unisex.

Is it a sweet, gourmand vanilla? Not really — it's built to read woody, spicy, and mineral rather than sugary-sweet.

How long does it last? Roughly 7-9 hours on skin with a close, moderate sillage.
