{"product_id":"dorsay-vanilla-affair-extrait-de-parfum","title":"D'ORSAY Vanilla Affair Extrait de Parfum","description":"\u003ch2\u003eWhat it smells like\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eD'ORSAY Vanilla Affair is a woody-ambery Extrait de Parfum in which vanilla is treated as a serious material rather than a dessert. It opens with tobacco, tonka bean and cistus: Balkan tobacco is honeyed and dry, like good pipe leaf rather than smoke, tonka adds almond-sweet warmth, and cistus, the resin of the rockrose, brings an ambery, slightly leathery depth. The start is dark gold and immediately grown-up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe heart is what the house calls a vanilla duo, two forms of vanilla layered together. The effect is rounded and creamy but not sugary, with a boozy, faintly smoky edge picked up from the tobacco above it. This is vanilla as a texture that coats the other materials rather than a note sitting on top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe base gives it staying power and intimacy: white musk for a clean, skin-like softness, patchouli for earthy depth, and amber for resinous warmth. Concentrated above 30% as an extrait, Vanilla Affair lasts a long time and stays close to the body once the opening has settled, leaving a warm, honeyed trail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho made it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVanilla Affair was composed by \u003cstrong\u003eNathalie Lorson\u003c\/strong\u003e, a master perfumer with a long and prolific career across both designer and niche perfumery. She is known for rich, confident compositions and for handling sweet materials without letting them collapse into sugar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReleased in 2026, it is the newest D'ORSAY Extrait in our range, and the house describes it as an irresistible attraction, each note a pact whispered against the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho it’s for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is for people who love vanilla, tobacco and amber, and who want a version with weight and polish. If you already enjoy tobacco-vanilla fragrances, this is a refined French take; if you find most vanillas too sweet, the cistus, patchouli and tobacco here provide the dryness you are missing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is unisex and suits anyone who wants a warm, sensual signature for the colder half of the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen to wear it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVanilla Affair is made for autumn and winter and for the evening. It suits dinners, nights out, celebrations and cold days when a warm fragrance feels like the right choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts concentration means restraint is wise: one or two sprays will carry through an evening. In hot weather the tobacco and amber can feel dense, so it is best saved for cooler conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the house\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eD'ORSAY is a Parisian perfume house founded on an 1830 story: Count Alfred d'Orsay, dandy and artist, composed a fragrance as a tribute to his love for Marguerite, Countess of Blessington, and it is remembered as one of the first worn by women and men alike. Every D'ORSAY fragrance today is unisex. Alongside the Eaux de Parfum, which carry a person's initials in their names, the house produces a line of Extraits de Parfum concentrated above 30%: bolder, longer-lasting single ideas such as Tonka Hysteria, Rose Blaze, Holy Berry and Flower Lust. Fragrances are made in France, and the house's Paris boutique is at 44 rue du Bac. Vanilla Affair Extrait de Parfum is available at Redolia Perfumery as a full 90 ml bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"D'ORSAY","offers":[{"title":"3.0 oz (90 ml)","offer_id":54446381400380,"sku":"3490030005217","price":315.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0987\/7078\/0476\/files\/dorsay-vanilla-affair-extrait-de-parfum-white-1.jpg?v=1790431437","url":"https:\/\/redolia.com\/products\/dorsay-vanilla-affair-extrait-de-parfum","provider":"Redolia Perfumery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
