October 2009. L’Artisan Parfumeur, tireless adventurer, unrepentant traveler and intrepid explorer invites you to encounter the languorous beauty that is Havana Vanille. From its vibrant Salsa rhythms, its famous cigars and Cuban rum, it is certain there is something magical about Havana. It is a place that contrasts all others.
This mysterious fragrance is reminiscent of travels around the world, the nostalgia of crossing the seven seas to discover far off treasures and the smell of a wooden boat mingling with the aroma of rum and spice. A sensually elegant fragrance, Havana Vanille expresses itself according to the occasion.

At the soul of this infusion is Mexican vanilla pod soaked in aged rum which contains a Top Note of clove and crystallized dried fruit. Its leathery characteristics are rounded off by a ball of vanilla and powder. The Heart Note, a subtle alliance of narcissus, everlasting flower and tonka bean is reminiscent of freshly picked tobacco leaves, both honey-sweet and narcotic. The Base Note blend of balms, smoked woods and musks around a vanilla absolute make the fragrance creamy, mellow and addictive. A luminous and mysterious harmony, Havana Vanille is indeed the fragrance of a magical place. It comes in 50ml (1.7oz) and 100ml (3.4oz) EDP.
LArtisan Parfumeur press release
I have tested this on many men, who loved it. Soon you will hear Bertrand's opinion. You can always order from first in fragrance when it becomes available
it says for woman and man...i kinda doubt it that a man will wear it ;-p
i'd loove to try this as well! but we don't have a store who sells it
tenzij iemand er 1 weet in NL? :)
gonna have to sniff this up against one of my faves: Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille!!
Wow! Sounds great, and I'm so jealous that you're getting to interview M. Duchaufour, too! He is one of my most-admired noses - I was just admiring his Comme des Garcons:Sherbet:Rhubarb again the other day and marveling at how something can be so tart and crisp and warm and snuggly at the same time. A masterpiece!
next week you will learn everyhting about Bertrand, l'artisan and the making of havanna Vanille. stay tuned!
Well, this sounds as though it were created specifically to tempt me! Consider me thoroughly tempted by the description alone...
I'm so excited to try this one! It sounds like perfection.
it is sensational. i will be interviewing Bertrand duchaufour next week on fragrantica... woohhoo This a smoky vanilla reminiscent of Guerlains Spiriteuse but much sexier. love it...
The notes are very appealing, I wonder how dried fruits will be in this composition..
I am so curious about this one, can´t wait to sample it.
