A pure and crystalline vanilla with mineral freshness, deepened by voluptuous vanilla pod. It’s a trio of rare vanillas: the elegant and airy NaturePrint® blue vanilla, the carnal intensity of Bourbon vanilla, and the woody and velvety facets of Madagascar vanilla. The golden glow of mimosa, with its powdery honey effect, wraps it all together with sunny sweetness.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is a fragrance for close quarters and low light, where its smoky sweetness can unfold without losing its mineral edge. It suits a wearer who wants warmth and sensuality with a polished, almost vintage composure rather than a sugary blur.
How to wear
Best in cool weather, especially autumn and winter, where the amber, smoke and vanilla can bloom fully. Apply sparingly at first: the scent has moderate sillage and enough richness to project with one to three sprays, settling into a creamy, woody warmth on skin.
Who it’s for
For vanilla lovers who prefer depth over dessert, and for those drawn to smoky, ambered, slightly leathery compositions with a vintage feel. It will appeal to wearers who like their sweetness tempered by mineral freshness and a refined, unisex structure.

The nose
Marie Salamagne is a principal perfumer at dsm-firmenich and one of the key creative partners behind Atelier des Ors. Her work often balances natural materials with a polished, contemporary structure, and she is known for compositions that feel textured, luminous and emotionally direct. For Novae Vanilla, Salamagne shapes the contrast between crystalline mineral freshness and a dense vanilla heart, giving the fragrance both clarity and sensual weight. Her style suits the house’s preference for refined materials, elegant radiance and a modern interpretation of French haute perfumery.
Collaborators
Jean-Philippe Clermont, founder of Atelier des Ors, appears to have shaped the house’s creative direction and the brand’s “Belle Parfumerie” vision, which frames Novae Vanilla as part of a poetic, gold-inflected universe. The fragrance also reflects the long-running collaboration with dsm-firmenich, whose natural-ingredient expertise and sourcing programs support the composition’s vanilla focus.
Atelier des Ors’s story
Atelier des Ors builds its identity around slow perfumery, craftsmanship and French haute parfumerie, treating scent as an art object rather than a disposable accessory. The house leans into precious materials, gold, and a poetic sense of radiance, while keeping the compositions modern, sensual and carefully made.
Novae Vanilla’s concept
Novae Vanilla is presented as a luminous vanilla built around contrast: mineral clarity, smoky depth and a trio of vanillas that move from airy blue vanilla to the darker richness of Bourbon and Madagascar. The name and imagery evoke a star igniting in darkness, tying the fragrance to Atelier des Ors’ recurring symbols of gold, light and eternal elegance.
Extra info
Novae Vanilla is part of Atelier des Ors’ gold-and-light aesthetic, and its bottle follows the house’s jewel-like presentation. The composition highlights three distinct vanilla materials, including the airy NaturePrint® blue vanilla alongside Bourbon and Madagascar vanilla.
