About the Fragrance: In the manner of a monochrome, BDK Parfums’ new fragrance explores the mysterious power of black, no longer seen as a shadow but revealed as a source of light. The sixth creation of the Collection Matières, Vanille Caviar is a perfume where the material itself becomes brilliance, through a vanilla worked to the utmost, elevated to the status of a noble substance. Here, vanilla, creamy and gourmand, becomes dark, dense, textured, and yet pierced with luminosity. Originating from an orchid, vanilla comes from a majestic flower with an almost unreal beauty. Its sensuality and addictive, suave aroma find a deep resonance in this composition. The seeds, a deep black, appear with a subtle sheen. Here, light no longer comes from a golden shimmer or a solar accord, it radiates from the very heart of the vanilla and the notes that accompany it. This is a Outrenoir vanilla, dark in appearance yet vibrant and alive, like artworks that change throughout the day depending on the light, shadow, or gaze. A sensual and enveloping composition, at once singular, modern, and timeless. The fragrance is structured around a single olfactory raw material: vanilla, revealed in all its nuances through CO₂ extract and absolute. Cocoa and resinous materials, Peru balsam and labdanum cistus, unfold its full richness and depth. At the heart lies a unique vanilla caviar accord with salty, mineral facets, as precious as it is distinctive. Surrounding it, subtle contrasts: the freshness of cardamom, the fruity brightness of blackcurrant, and the warmth of cocoa beans. "With Vanille Caviar, I wanted to explore the intimate flesh of vanilla, to dive deep into the heart of the pod, at that moment when it’s split open and oozes a dark, glistening nectar. That’s exactly how I composed this fragrance, using dense, layered materials like balms, resins, and powders, and shaping its luminous, glistening caviar accord." -Alexandra Carlin, Perfumer Fragrance Notes: Top: Blackcurrant Bud, Cardamom, Calamus, Middle: Vanilla Caviar, Cocoa Bean, Osmanthus Base: Vanilla from Madagascar, Peru Balsam, Cistus Labdanum Same Day pickup for curbside orders containing samples is not available.
