IBÈRÈ
Fragrance notes
Character
Zaharoff presents IBÈRÈ as a unisex oriental vanilla composed by Mathilde Bijaoui. The opening pairs nutmeg and pink pepper, delivering a fresh spicy lift that feels immediate and bright. Lavender enters the heart alongside sugar and dried fruits, adding an aromatic softness that keeps the sweetness from becoming flat. Ambrette rounds out the middle with a gentle musk that bridges the spice and the gourmand elements.
Vanilla and tonka bean form the core of the base, supported by amberwood and cedar. Moss adds a quiet earthiness that grounds the sweeter materials. The vanilla feels warm and steady, while the cedar provides a dry structure that prevents the composition from collapsing into pure sugar. The woody accord stays present as the fragrance develops, giving the wearer something resinous to hold onto beneath the fruit.
The powdery facet becomes more noticeable as the amber notes settle, creating a smooth texture across the skin. It suits cooler evenings when the air feels crisp and the light has faded. The dried fruits and sugar make it approachable for those who enjoy gourmand scents, while the moss and cedar offer enough depth for fans of woody profiles. The fragrance closes on a blend of vanilla and amber.
