by Chloé
Vanilla Planifolia by Chloé is a lightly sweet, floral vanilla with green, woody, and spicy nuances that unfold with time. It has an elegant, airy quality that reminds some of fresh orchid petals, whipped cream, and young wood, with a subtle hint of saltiness or green freshness that adds texture and depth. While it's not overwhelmingly gourmand, many note a fleeting banana-like sweetness, which can be divisive. The scent is delicate and skin-scent-like—projecting moderately for some, fading to a close-hug trail for others. It's appropriate for spring and summer, with a gentle sillage, making it ideal for daytime wear. It functions well as a layering fragrance with styles like Tom Ford Jasmin Rouge, where it enhances and airiness of floral notes without overpowering.
