Indie natural line Providence Perfume Co has launched two new fragrances, Vanilla Vellum and Vanilla Vellichor.

No expense was spared in creating our natural vanilla fragrances. Each gallon of perfume contains approximately ten pounds of vanilla beans! Our vanilla fragrances are not only costly to produce, the process in which we formulate these all natural perfumes is labor intensive and time consuming. Madagascar and Tahitian vanilla beans are hand chopped and macerated for a six month period infusing our vanilla fragrances with their exquisite natural aroma before we add additional layers of vanilla absolute and rare botanical essences to complete the final fragrance.

Vanilla Vellum ~ "Vanilla Vellum is inspired by the sheer transparent quality that vellum parchment paper possesses. Vanilla Vellum is a beautiful creamy vanilla scent, with notes of clean white musk, whipped cream, sheer white flowers and bergamot. While very much a vanilla scent, Vanilla Vellum doesn't register as overly sweet and wears as a translucent vanilla floral veil upon the skin."

Vanilla Vellichor ~ "Vanilla Vellichor is an ode to anyone who has spent many a happy hour with their noses buried in a book. The word "vellichor" is the term used to describe the feeling and aroma one experiences upon entering a used bookstore. The sweet, musty, spicy vanilla like smell emanating from the leather bound pages of old books is intoxicating. In fact, the sweet aroma these books possess comes from the lignin in the wood based paper. As the pages of the book age, the paper increasingly emits a pleasant sweet vanilla aroma that inspires a wistful nostalgia. With notes of oud, nutmeg, amber and vanilla, Vanilla Vellichor is a rich and deep fragrance. A pulpy, woody, unisex vanilla scent who those who enjoy the darker side of vanilla."

Providence Perfume Co Vanilla Vellum and Vanilla Vellichor are $50 each for a 4 ml rollerball or $90 for the duo, or $245 each for 50 ml Eau de Parfum.
