Les Eaux Primordiales Vanille Supermassive Extrait

Description

Les Eaux Primordiales Vanille Supermassive Extrait is a resinous, luminous vanilla that is more radiant than sugary. Perfumer Arnaud Poulain opens it with bright elemi and bergamot, builds a heart of labdanum, fir balsam and cinnamon, and sets a dense vanilla core on patchouli, ambroxan, white musk, caramel and moss. Retailers describe it as a 30% extrait that is macerated for a year. It is a vanilla for people who want depth and glow rather than a bakery sweetness.

Performance

Reviewer feedback on longevity is mixed. Some wearers call it a perfect winter scent with remarkably good staying power, while others find sillage and longevity average. Given the extrait concentration, a fair expectation is around six to eight hours on skin with moderate projection, varying with skin chemistry.

Best in fall and winter, for evenings, nights out, and cozy cold-weather days. Its resinous warmth is not aimed at hot weather.
