Who doesn’t love a beautiful vanilla fragrance? I know I do! In fact, this one by Van Cleef & Arpels is absolutely extraordinary.

To be frank, my bottle is ten years old. I have a lot of perfume, which is why it looks used in my photo, but not completely empty. I store my perfumes in a cool, dark closet to preserve them. So, when people say perfume has an expiration, or that it goes bad, the bottle has to be really old or stored incorrectly. My bottle of Van Cleef & Arpels Orchidee Vanille edp smells just as beautiful today as the day I originally purchased it.

This version of vanilla by Van Cleef & Arpels is smooth, warm, and long lasting. It is a timeless fragrance you can wear all year long, in any weather. The citrus notes make it ideal in warm weather while the warm vanilla and woods make it ideal in cool weather. Orchidee Vanille works in any season, making it a fabulous vanilla investment fragrance. Love that!

  • Top Notes: Mandarin, Lychee
  • Middle notes: Bitter Almond, Bulgarian rose, violet
  • Base notes: Vanilla adsolute, cedarwood, tonka bean, white musk

Not all fragrances are made with top quality ingredients. You can rest assured Van Cleef & Arpels uses the best ingredients in the industry, resulting in not only a beautiful fragrance experience, but also a long lasting, investment bottle filled with everything that’s fabulous about fragrance. After all, my bottle is a decade old, and it smells perfect; and lasts all day on my skin! Love!

I’m all about a beautiful scent, and also quality. Which is why Van Cleef & Arpels Orchidee Vanille edp is my favorite vanilla fragrance. It is also why I do own other eau de parfum’s from Van Cleef & Arpels, so stay tuned for another review!

Thanks for stopping by!
