Byredo Vanille Antique is a warm, smoky, and unconventional take on vanilla that opens with a rich blend of earthy plum and musky ambrette, creating a slightly dark and fruity introduction. The heart reveals a unique twist on vanilla—woody, resinous, and infused with leathery nuances—balanced by soft florals and smoky incense that give it depth and complexity. As it dries down, the vanilla becomes more prominent but never overly sweet, wrapped in warm amber and gentle musks that create a comforting yet mysterious aura. The overall scent is refined, moody, and sensual, offering a modern and intimate interpretation of vanilla with a shadowy elegance.

This sample did not match my known Vanille Antique experience. The scent profile, appearance, and behavior on skin were inconsistent enough that I suspect a mix-up or dilution. Recommend verifying against a trusted sample before buying larger sizes. While $36 for a 5ml sample isnt the costliest, it is also not cheap. This is the first time ordering from Cologne Decanted. Im going to be very hesitant ordering from them again.
One of my favourite vanilla perfumes
Very nice and very fast service.
