Vanilla

Vanilla is an old spice grown by the Ancient Mexicans and thought to be a gift from the gods. The Vanilla Pod grows from the Orchid plant and is used in both fragrance and flavor. Aztecs used it to flavor chocolate and taught the practice to the Spanish conquistadors who carried it with them to Europe in the 15th century. The allure of Vanilla quickly spread, leading to its cultivation as far as Madagascar. The warm, sweet and comforting aroma of Vanilla is one of the most well-known in the world.

Amber smells sweetly of warm vanilla and labdanum, possessing a jeweled, golden hue. The resin has been prized since Neolithic times, where it was found either washed ashore or crystalized around the trees from which it is produced.
