Vanilla

“Vanilla” by Maison Maïssa is a luminous and intimate fragrance that reimagines the classic gourmand through a refined lens. It opens with a sparkling swirl of rose, lemon, and sugar, unfurls into a heart of loukhoum and white musk, and settles into a velvety base of vanilla absolute and cedarwood. Perfect for lovers of soft sweetness with depth — it’s romantic, modern, and endlessly wearable.

 

Character, Wear & Suggestion

• Vibe: Soft, romantic, and luminous — it’s a “vanilla with character,” not a plain gourmand. 

• Gender: Unisex — made to appeal to those who love warm, sweet scents but appreciate structure and complexity.

• Occasion & Season: Great for cooler months or evening wear, though the citrus & rose lift allow it to be worn in transitional seasons too.

• Longevity & Projection: According to community ratings, its longevity is moderate, and sillage is moderate — it’s noticeable but not overwhelming.
