French jewelry brand Reminiscence will launch Vanille, a new oriental fragrance, in September.
Notes include bergamot, jasmine, amber, musk and vanilla from Uganda.
Reminiscence Vanille will be available in 100 ml Eau de Toilette.

Huh. Ugandan vanilla rather than Malagasy Vanilla? (I’m sure I can’t tell the difference, but it’s sort of curious that they’d not use the better-hyped variety from Madagascar). In any case, would be happy to try another vanilla scent.
I think they are working on ethical sourcing…and if memory serves, that DKNY Drop of Vanilla thing (can’t remember the name now) also worked with a women’s cooperative in Uganda?
It’s a little sad that even though I have all the vanillas in the world, my first thought was “Ooo, a new vanilla. I’ll have to try that!”
Not sure what I’ll think of a vanilla that starts with bergamot, but certainly willing to sniff this.
Unseencenser, I’m the same way. I have just about every vanilla, but still hold out hoping to find another magic one. Do you have any favorites?
Hey, Shalimar is bergamot + vanilla! So not a bad idea.
I love the way Rem does Patchouli. I will be very curious to try this one and I have a strong suspicion it will be very good.
I really liked one of the Rem Patch flankers, I think the Elixir.
