VANILLA MONSOON

Vanilla Monsoon is a unisex extrait de parfum by Salum, the Italian house that creates Made in Italy niche fragrances with selected raw materials and unexpected olfactory pairings, signed by perfumer Sofia Bardelli. Part of the Treasure Island Collection, it is an amber floral dominated by vanilla, with a fruity nuance, warm and enveloping, that celebrates Madagascar's most precious treasure.

The Fragrance

The Treasure Island Collection is an olfactory journey to Madagascar, among the wonders and treasures of an island unlike any other: spices, exotic fruits, rare woods and lush forests. Vanilla Monsoon tells the story of vanilla, the island's pride, at the most intense moment of the season: when the monsoon sweeps over the plantations with its warm rain and the flowers open, releasing a whirlwind of scents and emotions. A lively, luminous and sensual vanilla, far from anything ordinary.

How It Evolves on Skin

The opening is bright and spicy: orange and cardamom join a monsoon accord, fresh and humid like tropical rain. In the heart, juicy peach meets orange blossom, vanilla flower and jasmine, in a soft, sunny bouquet. The base is warm and enveloping: patchouli, vanilla and benzoin leave a creamy, sweet and sensual trail.

Who We Recommend Vanilla Monsoon To

We recommend Vanilla Monsoon to those who love vanilla but are looking for an original interpretation, floral and fruity, never cloying. It is perfect for autumn, winter and spring, for every day and for special occasions. Unisex, it sweetly envelops every skin.

FAQ

What is the difference between Vanilla Monsoon and Exotic Chocolate?
They are two perfumes from the Treasure Island Collection with vanilla in the base, but very different: Vanilla Monsoon is a luminous floral vanilla, with orange, cardamom, monsoon accord, peach and orange blossom; Exotic Chocolate is a patisserie-style spicy gourmand, with white chocolate, chocolate biscuit, hot milk and cocoa powder.

No: it is gourmand but balanced, thanks to the freshness of orange and cardamom and the depth of patchouli, for an elegant vanilla that is never cloying.

What does the monsoon accord represent?
It evokes the warm rain that sweeps over tropical plantations: a fresh, humid sensation that makes the vanilla livelier and brighter.

Is Vanilla Monsoon suitable for a man?
Yes, it is a unisex extrait: cardamom and patchouli give the vanilla a warm, sensual character that works beautifully on male skin too.
