Best Gourmand Perfume

Gourmand perfumes, a novelty that came to stay!!

Even in the early 20th century , when Shalimar came on the market, vanilla was a note used only in patisserie, never in perfumes!

If I had used as much vanilla, I would have only obtained one English cream, while him, Jacques Guerlain, created SHALIMAR! … Ernest Beaux .. the nose behind Chanel N5

Actually vanilla was the first gourmand note used in perfumes, but the last decate more and more aromas contain notes that make you hungry for sweets,, even food nowadays. They tend to make us feel content, give a comfort feeling, and satisfy our sweet cravings..
