Ayala Moriel has introduced a new gourmand fragrance, Immortelle l'Amour:
The maple-like nuances of immortelle absolute are used here along with sweet orange, cinnamon, wheat and three different infusions of vanilla, creating a perfume that truly captures the aroma of cinnamon-pancakes and Tire d’Erable (“taffee on the snow”), an inseparable part of the Quebec heritage in the Maple Harvest Festivals. You’ll find it hard to resist licking this perfume, but it will prove to be a true friend for a love-injured heart.
The fragrance notes feature sweet orange, cinnamon, rooibos tea, broom, immortelle, vanilla and wheat.
Ayala Moriel Immortelle l'Amour is available in Parfum. Later this month, it will also be available in a tea form developed by Inner Alchemy Tea Co. of Vancouver. (via ayalamoriel)
I would buy this one even without trying it first!
Love pancakes, love cinnamon, love maple syrup and oranges as well. Would drink some Cointreau with it to heighten the the good feelings even more..
It does sound lovely, and I love rooibos tea
This blurb exemplifies the fact that I really just don't “get” the hyper-gourmand trend. Cinnamon pancakes?! That sounds delicious as a home fragrance or candle, but just seems cloying as personal fragrance. I can appreciate much spice in orientals, but even too much vanilla bothers me. Dessert notes are best left to room spray, IMO. Ah well, to each his/her own!
I like so many scents that really ought to be home fragrances, so am guilty as charged I guess. Cinnamon pancakes would be more compelling to me if I didn't dislike most fragrances w/ immortelle. I do love rooibos so that might trump the immortelle, we'll see!
