{"product_id":"naseem-french-vanilla-sample","title":"Naseem French Vanilla Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrench Vanilla by Naseem is warm, spicy and sweet, listed as unisex and moderate. Lavender, mugwort, bergamot and cardamom open it, cinnamon, cumin, lily of the valley and green mint fill the heart, and musk, vanilla, dry woods, tobacco and benzoin close it. The name promises vanilla, but the pyramid shows a lot more going on around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Lavender, Mugwort, Bergamot, Cardamom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Cinnamon, Cumin, Lily of the Valley, Green Mint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Musk, Vanilla, Dry Woods, Tobacco, Benzoin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLavender and mugwort first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLavender and mugwort give the start an aromatic, slightly bitter tone, with bergamot and cardamom adding brightness and warmth. It is an herbal, spicy opening and not at all a dessert. Wait before you judge it, because the vanilla of the name arrives later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA busy spiced heart\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCinnamon, cumin, lily of the valley and green mint share the heart. Cumin is a polarising spice, and the mint and lily of the valley are there to freshen it. This is the part that will surprise you, for better or worse, and the reason to try it on skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVanilla with tobacco and wood\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMusk, vanilla, dry woods, tobacco and benzoin make the base. Here the vanilla finally steps forward, but the tobacco and dry woods keep it from turning into plain sweetness. Look at how dry or how creamy the ending feels on you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWear French Vanilla on a cool evening, as it is listed for autumn, winter and special occasions. Use one spray, then take notes at the start, at the heart and at the end of the evening. If cumin shows up and you dislike it, the heart is where you will notice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeople who like vanilla but find pure gourmand perfumes too simple, and who enjoy spices, herbs and a touch of tobacco around it. It is listed as unisex, for evenings and special occasions. If you want a warm vanilla with some edge, this is a considered place to look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Naseem French Vanilla as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA perfume called French Vanilla that includes mugwort, cumin and tobacco is not what the name suggests, and that is exactly why a description helps less than a trial. The vial is decanted by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us; Naseem did not prepare it, so it is not an official brand sample.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs French Vanilla a simple vanilla perfume?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. Vanilla is in the base, but lavender, mugwort, cinnamon, cumin, mint and tobacco make the picture more complex.
