Top notesThe first spray

Guerlain charge £495 for 50ml of Vanille Planifolia Extrait 21. Our 50ml is £40.

Vanille 21 is Aromara's take on it, built at 35% Extrait.

The 21 is Guerlain's own number. They soak the vanilla in alcohol for 21 days. What comes out is a rich, spiced vanilla: spice first, then a warm ambery resin, then a soft, powdery musk. Not cupcake vanilla. Grown-up vanilla.

Ours is an Extrait de Parfum, made at 35%.

Want a boozier vanilla? Try Double Vanille, our take on Guerlain's Spiritueuse Double Vanille.

35% Extrait. 7+ hour wear, guaranteed. 60-day money-back.

The notes
  • Notes: Vanilla, Spices, Amber, Musk

Guerlain do not publish a top, heart and base pyramid for this one. They name vanilla, spice, musk and an ambery accord, so that is what we list.

FAQ

What does the 21 mean?

Guerlain soak vanilla pods in alcohol for 21 days to make the tincture. They call 21 the golden number of Guerlain vanilla.

Is Vanille 21 a good dupe of Vanille Planifolia?

Vanille 21 follows the same spiced vanilla with an ambery base and a powdery musk. Guerlain sell 50ml at £495. Ours is the same 50ml size at £40. We make it with oils from some of the world's leading fragrance houses, the kind that also make for designer and niche brands.

How is it different from Double Vanille?

Reviewers of the two Guerlain originals describe Vanille Planifolia as airier and less boozy than Spiritueuse Double Vanille. Our pair follows the same split: Vanille 21 is the drier, spicier one, Double Vanille the warmer, boozier one.

How long does Vanille 21 last?

7+ hours on skin, guaranteed. If it does not last 7 hours, you get a refund. Vanille 21 is an Extrait de Parfum, made at 35%. How long any scent stays depends on its notes, your skin and the weather: fresh, citrus and aquatic scents lift off sooner, while woods, amber, musk and vanilla stay with you for longer. Spray onto moisturised skin at your pulse points and let it dry without rubbing.

What if I do not like it?

Try it. If you are not convinced, you have 60 days to send it back lightly tested, with at least 90% left, and get your money back. You cover the return postage. Full terms are in our refund policy.
