Each perfume brings together the scents of multiple elements — floral, woody, mineral — into a unique composition designed to create an olfactory world in which each person can immerse themselves.
Just as musical notes form a melodic phrase, fragrance notes are also what we call the scents that we combine, grouping them into three categories.
The top notes open the door to the senses; we recognize them at the threshold, and they welcome us.
The middle notes then emerge, sometimes one by one, sometimes all at once, like the guests we await.
Finally, the base notes are revealed, distant but remaining in our memories like the recollections of joyful worlds.
Each perfume has its own set of notes, known as its olfactory pyramid - this is its identity.
These symphonies of notes compose a dominant tone for each fragrance, which we call its accent.
A woody accent, for example, reveals notes like sandalwood or oud, evoking warm and natural scents. A floral accent, on the other hand, is composed of notes such as rose, jasmine, or lily of the valley, bringing a delicate and elegant dimension.
These accents reflect the soul of the perfume and define its sensory identity.
La Maison de la Vanille invites you to explore how its signature note blends, evolves, and is enhanced in each fragrance of its collections.
