Vanille Fatale
Eau de parfum
A dark vanilla, between coffee, roasted barley and mahogany.
Vanille Fatale belongs to Tom Ford's Private Blend collection. The house explores a dark vanilla here, paired with coffee and woods.
Vanilla resinoid is at its centre. Coffee absolute and roasted barley give it a toasted depth, and a mahogany wood accord a woody footing. Safraleine and a frangipani note add a spicy, floral touch.

Vanille Fatale in detail
Tom Ford places Vanille Fatale in its Private Blend collection. The house explores a dark vanilla here, far from pastry vanillas; it publishes no family, and Volute classes it among gourmand fragrances.
The house publishes its key notes without sorting them into stages. Vanilla resinoid sits at its centre, thick and balsamic. Coffee absolute and roasted barley give it a roasted, almost toasty note. A mahogany wood accord adds a dry footing. Safraleine, a molecule with leathery accents, and a note of creamy frangipani complete the whole.
Vanille Fatale is worn in the evening, in autumn and winter. Its roasted notes keep it from being too sweet: it is a vanilla for lovers of coffee and woods.
Three gourmand fragrances in our catalogue share some of its materials: Sugar Addict by Born To Stand Out brings together coffee and vanilla; Italica by Xerjoff and Enigma Pour Homme by Roja Parfums also rest on vanilla.
