Our fall picks
Smoky Vanilla: Inspired by Tobacco Vanille
Tobacco leaf and spices open into vanilla, cacao, tonka bean and tobacco flower, then settle on dried fruits and woods. It is the scent of a warm sweater and a fireplace, and it works for anyone.
Vanilla Killer: Inspired by Vanille Fatale
Saffron and coriander lead into coffee, frangipani, barley and narcissus, over a base of Madagascar vanilla, tobacco, suede and mahogany. Choose it if you want a darker, boozier vanilla for evenings.
Vanilla Cake: Inspired by Vanilla 28
Vanilla orchid and jasmine meet a brown sugar and tonka heart, finished with amber, musk and patchouli. It is the easy, everyday vanilla of the list. For more sweet picks, see our guide to sweet vanilla perfumes in Canada.
Cherry lover: Inspired by Lost Cherry
Black cherry, cherry liqueur and bitter almond sit over Turkish rose and jasmine, then tonka, vanilla, cinnamon and sandalwood. Juicy and boozy, it is made for fall date nights.
Royal Tobacco: Inspired by Herod
Cinnamon and pepper wood open onto osmanthus, tobacco leaf, labdanum and incense, with vanilla, styrax, cistus and musk in the base. A warm, spicy men's tobacco for cold days.
Italian Leather: Inspired by Tuscan Leather
Raspberry, saffron and thyme lead into jasmine and olibanum, then leather, amber and wood. Bold and smoky, it is the statement scent of the list.
Oud Mood: Inspired by Oud Wood
Rosewood, cardamom and Chinese pepper open onto oud, sandalwood and vetiver, finished with tonka bean, vanilla and amber. Smooth enough for the office, rich enough for the evening.
rebel: Inspired by Althair
Orange blossom, bergamot, cinnamon and cardamom open onto bourbon vanilla and elemi, with guaiac wood, ambrox, praline and musk in the base. A brighter, creamier vanilla for men.
Beautiful Donna: Inspired by Donna Born in Roma Intense
Bourbon vanilla and amber lead into jasmine, then benzoin and amber. Warm and glamorous, it is a women's vanilla for evenings out.

All of them are extrait de parfum, the strongest standard perfume concentration, so they last longer than most eau de parfum or eau de toilette. Wear time varies with skin and weather.
