Gourmet and suave, Melipona is a fragrance that opens elegantly with woody and vanilla notes and gives way to oriental and amber notes in the background. Vanilla originated in Mexico, where the Aztecs used it to soften the bitterness of chocolate. There were many European attempts to cultivate the pods outside of its original cradle. Louis XIV fell in love with it and wanted to cultivate it on Bourbon Island, in Réunion. But all attempts under his reign failed. No one knew how to fertilize vanilla outside its native range. Europeans were unaware that the Mexican bee Melipona was responsible for pollination. Indeed, thanks to it, the orchid provides a long, green fruit commonly called a vanilla pod.

Is good farken, got recommended this by someone since I was sick of these new sweet designer mens fragrances and this did not disappoint, it lasts a long time, I spray some on before work in the morning and still smell it when I finish 8hrs later
This is THE fragrance. Smells like a sweet milk mixed with coconut and vanilla . I went to an event on the weekend and EVERYONE complimented my fragrance and demanded to know what it was called. I’ve been told I smell like a sweet biscuit to a tropical Bahamas beach. It’s sensual, addictive and so delicious to wear all year round really. BUY THIS!!
