The 7 Virtues Vanilla Woods EDP

Finding a new fragrance to enjoy can often be a challenge, for me, that scent is usually led by emotions and the notes that have been used. Over the years I've come to adore anything with Jasmine as a note, but Vanilla is still a main no-no, I find it too heady and overpowering, then I was introduced to The 7 Virtues with Vanilla Woods EDP!
The 7 Virtues Vanilla Woods EDP
Vanilla Woods by The 7 Virtues is described as being an Amber Woody fragrance which launched back in 2018.
An intoxicating perfume with a dash of fresh pear, a big rose heart note, and the long-lasting finish of organic vanilla and gourmand caramel infused with warm amber. Made with organic, sustainably sourced vanilla from Madagascar. Made with organic, fair trade vanilla essential oil from Madagascar
This fragrance is simply stunning and I loved it from the first spritz. Opening with the top note of pear there i is an instant fresh fruit scent which lingers in the air, with it come the heart note of Rose and what I love about the rose is that it allows the pear to be itself whilst at the same time you definitely notice it there. Then with the base notes of Vanilla, Caramel and Amber you get the warm, slightly spicy notes without the Vanilla being really heavy and heady - hence my surprise at really liking this fragrance.
The 7 Virtues Vanilla Woods EDP
For me, this is an everyday fragrance and one which can be worn all year round. Once spritzed onto clothing and pulse points, this is a long lasting scent which is noticeable all day and the silage is pretty impressive too!

It is also worth noting that all of the formulations within this range are Leaping-Bunny certified, cruelty-free, and vegan.

On sale with Sephora, 50ml is priced at £85.
