Parfymeolje med honning, tonkabønne og ristet vanilje

The honey is the star here—it’s rich but not cloying, and the tonka bean keeps it from getting too sugary. I dabbed a bit on my wrists this morning and could still catch soft wafts of toasted vanilla on my sweater eight hours later.

The toasted vanilla shows up almost immediately and keeps the honey from being too cloying—it’s warm without being heavy. I’ve had it on for six hours and can still catch soft wafts of tonka when I move.

The honey is what hits first—rich and almost syrupy—then the tonka and toasted vanilla smooth it out into this cozy, baked-good warmth. As an oil, it sits close to the skin but lasts through a full workday, which is exactly what I wanted.
