In order to present this extraordinary "marriage" of ingredients Affinessence
combines two types of vanilla (Tahiti vanilla absolute with intense scent of leather and sweet
aromas of Madagascar vanilla absolute). This blend is combined with the so-called alter-ego,
Siamese benzoin, fragrant resin originating from Laos and is highly respected for its balmy,
almond-like shades. For the strong, irresistible trail scents of ambroxan, tonka, Moroccan and
Chinese cedar were use, placing benzoin and vanilla in the first plan, providing amazing strength.
Fragrance Vanille Benjoin was developed by perfumer Corine Cachen. Vanille Benjoin was
launched in 2015.
Available as Eau de Parfum 100ml 3.3 fl. Oz.

STORY

The salty diffusiveness of ambroxan certainly helps to control sweetness, but the main
hand in ensuring the scent remains dry is the Siam benzoin, the basenote material chosen here to
be “married” to the vanilla. Although benzoin is roughly analogous to vanilla in that they both add a
warm, sweet “fullness” to the basenotes of a scent, benzoin differs substantially by being far more
medicinal, resinous, and spicy-peppery in character. In Vanille Benjoin, the fiery cinnamon topnotes
of benzoin are cleverly matched, step for step, by cedarwood, a material possessed of a similarly
spicy, balsamic underbite. In an equally smart move, the doughy, clay-like properties of benzoin
are drawn out by a judicious application of tonka bean absolute, which shares with benzoin a
buttery texture and nutty aftertaste.
