Where Does Vanilla Come From?

Vanilla is used in food and fragrances around the globe. It has a sweet, slightly syrupy scent that's warm and inviting. Vanilla is difficult to compare to other scents as it truly stands out. It's light, charming, and alluring, making it a go-to for men and women's fragrances, as well as candles, reed diffusers, and even food flavouring. Vanilla dates back to ancient Mexican civilisation, and only reached widespread use a few centuries ago, when manual pollination was discovered.

What Does Vanilla Smell Like?

With a sweet, slightly nutty smell, vanilla is one of the most sought-after fragrances. It’s used as a spice in its pure form. In perfume, vanilla is known for its light, charming scent that strikes a balance between magical femininity and luxurious comfort. What’s so unique about vanilla is that the beans grow alongside scentless flowers. Somehow, the dark brown pods of vanilla bean seeds end up with a gorgeously rich fragrance anyway!

Why is Vanilla Popular?

While many fragrances elicit a strong opinion, most universally accept vanilla. That may be because the aroma is so commonly used in desserts, perfumes, candles, and diffusers, so floral familiarity makes us feel at home. Vanilla also has calming benefits and has been linked to reduced inflammation, making it a popular choice for natural perfumes and lifestyle products.
