About This Perfume
Gulf Orchid Tahara Vanilla smells like creamy vanilla powder with a whisper of green fruit and musk. Fruity and green notes open it lightly and freshly. Vanilla, lily of the valley and jasmine form a soft, powdery floral heart, and musk, tonka bean and amber give the base a clean, warm finish.
This unisex scent reads as clean, powdery and gentle to the community. It works in every season and is a daytime wear, comfortable for the office and casual days. It is vanilla without the heavy dessert feel, closer to fresh laundry and warm skin than to cake. Released in 2022.
Longevity is moderate and projection is around arm's length, sitting fairly close to the wearer.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone who wants a clean, soft vanilla for everyday and office wear.
- Sample first if: you want your vanilla sweet and gourmand, since this one leans clean and powdery.
- Skip if: you want a bold, projecting evening scent.
Around $30.
