This is the one

When I encountered this particular fragance in Ecocentric shop in Lyon, I had never been so certain about purchasing a perfume. It was as if it was calling my name, wrapping me in its scent and embracing me in a way that felt incredibly personal. It felt like it was meant for me, making it an easy decision to make it a part of my collection. This is THE pefume.

Cette vanille vous captive tout de suite tant elle est chaleureuse sans être lourde ; on se sent enveloppé d'un voile de chaleur en la sentant, avec son écrin boisé, épicé et même un peu fumé qui la réchauffe encore. Je sens moi aussi comme une note de rhum qui se développe peu à peu, bien que la pyramide n'indique rien de tel. Les épices, les bois et ce rhum fantôme contribuent à faire de cette belle vanille un unisexe gourmand à mes yeux (ou à mon nez, plutôt) : un parfum masculin et sexy sur un homme et sexy et plein de caractère sur une femme...

Un veritable coup de coeur

Une vanille épicée qui réchauffe, et enveloppe mais sans jamais être écoeurante. Le parfum évolue doucement, et fini par laisser derrière lui une touche chaude et ambrée comme après une journée passée sous le soleil.

Magnifique.

L'ouverture et les premiers moments du parfum sont autour d'une vanille épicée et boisée. Puis sur la peau au bout d'1h cette vanille devient poudrée, sensuelle sans sucrosité aucune. D'une richesse et beauté incroyable ! Sur un homme il doit être encore plus merveilleux que sur une femme !

"Moi je l'ai bien aimé ce ""Grande Île"". Il évolue joliment sur ma peau, libérant de vigoureuses et robustes épices.
Paradoxalement, j'y décèle un Cacao exotique, des bois brûlés (Palissandre, Santal), Cardamome et Muscade giroflée, Genévrier aromatique, Cannelle, Rhum, Benjoin et Ambre. Il est brûlant, crémeux et sec à la fois, et particulièrement invasif. Après 45 minutes, je le trouve d'avantage rond et puissant. Il est très adapté au second semestre et à la période de Noël si vous aimez les traditions hivernales."

DISCOVER HOW FRANK VOELKL CREATED THIS FRAGRANCE

In Madagascar, we partner with the Mahadera school.

Mahadera is a vocational school for the youth, aiming at professionalization of farming in the Sava, the region of vanilla cultivation. Students learn to grow 60 food and cash crops, across 25 hectares around the school.

Our project supports graduated students to follow their entrepreneurial projects. We provide individual grants for them to make investments in their family farm, and to implement practices they have learned at the Mahadera school, with a focus on revenue diversification, agroforestry and multi cropping.

Malagasy farmers are in need to find resilient practices to face a drier climate and the inherent challenges to vanilla farming in Madagascar.
