Perfume Ingredient Scent: Sweet, creamy

• Vanilla is one of the most popular scents in the world with its highly recognizable sweet and creamy fragrance. 

• Vanilla comes from the seed pods of the three main species of vanilla orchid: Vanilla Planifolia, Vanilla Pompona and Vanilla Tahitensis.

• Vanilla had been used to flavour xocoatl, the chocolate beverage of the Aztecs, centuries before the Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés drank it at Montezuma’s court, and soon afterward vanilla became popular in Europe. 

• Today it is used in a variety of sweet foods and beverages, particularly chocolate, confections, ice cream, and bakery goods, and in perfumery.

• Vanilla plants have a long, fleshy climbing stem that attaches to trees by aerial rootlets; roots also penetrate the soil. 

• Numerous flowers open a few at a time and last a single day during the blooming season, which lasts about two months.
