With the name Dark Vanilla, I, a not so big vanilla- or gourmand fragrance lover, don't have such a scary scent imagination at first, as perhaps with a possible imaginary scent "sugar sweet tooth enamel melody in pink powdered sugar icing". Rightly !
The fragrance does not have the weighty presence of a Shalimar EdP, but rather presents itself as a modern, business-affine relative from the lively urban metropolis. This approach is somehow obvious with the label name "Urban scents" :-). Of endurance and Sillage adequate and at the same time discreet.

The fragrance is carried by a solid, rather dark planty note close to the vanilla pod. Nice! At the beginning, a light chord of light sharpness and a calmly swinging herbaceous bitter green note swings for me and gives a cool-looking prelude. An elegant combination of slightly woody rummy notes and balsamic nuances of benzoin is already swarming a little and becomes more and more apparent with time. The base in form of the above mentioned solid vanilla bean takes more and more the lead, now however in the further course clearly strengthened by a multi-layered triad a fluffy vanity with a little vanilla dream (a kind of scent as it will be known from herbal tea creations with *cream in the name, creamy, vanilla, creamy) on top. The tone notes give a dignified elegant creaminess.
