Vanille Baïkal by Première Note is a captivating fragrance that draws inspiration from the pristine, sacred waters of Lake Baikal. It opens with a bright and invigorating blend of sparkling bergamot, a unique salty accord, and the fresh, green nuances of violet leaves, creating an almost marine-like freshness. As it develops, the heart reveals a luxurious duo of Bourbon and Tahitensis vanillas, enriched by the opulent floralcy of jasmine, offering a comforting yet addictive sweetness. The scent settles into a sensual and enduring base of creamy sandalwood, warm amber woods, and soft white musks, leaving a sophisticated and enveloping trail. Perfumer: Nathalie Lorson
