Vanilla by Tom Ford marks a bold, polarizing direction for the brand's gourmand lineup. It greets you with a sharp, medicinal blast of bitter almond that feels almost like amaretto spilled on cold granite. This chilly, nutty opening soon yields to a warm, milky wave of vanilla absolute and cozy tonka bean on a quiet sandalwood base. It lacks the smoky darkness of Tobacco Vanille, opting instead for a clean, sweet, and somewhat clinical texture. If you want a comforting winter skin scent for quiet nights or office wear, this works well. However, the steep price tag means you should sample it on skin before committing to a full bottle.
