NEW FORMULATION!
An anti-vanilla gourmand scent with attitude.
Our sweet-but-spicy take on a timeless scent. It’s warm vanilla, reimagined with depth and edge. Enhanced with golden amber, fresh tulip, rich espresso, and a snap of pink pepper. Soft, bold, and anything but basic.
A Fragrance Foundation award nominee.
“I envisioned this fragrance as a refined, modern take on the classic vanilla note. I blended royal white tulip, pepper, saffron, and incense for a captivating, spicy yet delicate opening that immediately draws you in. It’s delicate, sweet and perfectly balanced.” – founder, Jérôme Epinette

HOW IT WEARS
Opening with a fleeting appearance from angelic white tulip, it doesn’t take long before Vanilla Era turns rich and deep on the skin. In the heart, vanilla and coffee appear suspended in the resinous warmth of black amber, underpinned by the dirty sweetness of beetroot and sharp black pepper for a sexy, earthy edge.Â
LORE LOVES
Vanilla Era is a grown-up vanilla, the new era of vanilla if you like! It’s earthy but still softly sweet, drying down creamy and skin-like. For us, this new formulation seems more vanilla forward, but the lasting power is definitely better, with the addition of black amber aiding the fragrance in staying on the skin for hours at a time.Â
ABOUT THE BRAND
Welcome to Boy Smells 2.0 – same perfumers, new formulas and packaging!  Long-lasting scents, more approachable smells and a balanced final formula. Boy Smells 2.0 is just that: bolder, bigger and more balanced.Â
In late 2015, Boy Smells began as an experiment in candle-making in the Los Angeles kitchen of co-founders and partners Matthew Herman and David Kien. Herman and Kien began by making the things they’d want to use daily – products that were fluid, essential, but also accessible.
Each fragrance draws inspiration from the founders’ memories and experiences, but also takes into account the context and history attached to different smells. Each Boy Smells fragrance is like the complex identity of a person, full of dualities and contradictions, and because of that, wearing them allows you to reinforce your sense of self every day before you walk out the door.
Bold, boundary-breaking, and beautifully in-between. Boy Smells are rooted in genderfulness – not as a passing trend, but as a constant way of being.
