Escapade Gourmande Grand Cru
Extrait de Parfum
Maison Mataha Escapade Gourmande Grand Cru is a rich and luminous gourmand fragrance—a new take on the Maison Mataha icon, reimagined to be fuller, more diffusive, and more natural than ever before. The bottle is dressed in gold, and vanilla absolute—used in an overdose—takes center stage, gaining a more mature dimension thanks to the silky, soft, and unexpected touch of Peru balsam. An indulgent escape built around the world’s most beloved note, elevated to the level of a "Grand Cru."
What It Smells Like
Escapade Gourmande Grand Cru opens with a sumptuous wave of Cristal vanilla absolute—luminous and creamy—enveloped in the warm, balsamic softness of Peru balsam essence. At its heart, a black sugar accord brings a caramelized, slightly smoky richness, further enhanced by the almond-like, ambery warmth of tonka bean absolute. In the base, Bourbon vanilla absolute unfolds in all its natural opulence, softened by a veil of musk that imparts a sensual warmth—feeling almost like a natural extension of the skin.
The result is a vanilla of rare depth and complexity—gourmand yet refined, intense while remaining silky-smooth, and lingering long on the skin after every application.
Why Choose It
Escapade Gourmande Grand Cru is designed for those who love vanilla in its most generous and sophisticated form—not the ordinary sweetness of just any vanilla, but the highest, most complex expression of the quintessential gourmand note. It suits a warm, magnetic personality—someone who wears a gourmand fragrance as a signature of both comfort and seduction. Perfect for cool evenings and the golden months of autumn and winter, it is the fragrance to choose whenever you wish to leave a trail that feels like an embrace. Opulent, enveloping, and beautifully balanced, Escapade Gourmande Grand Cru is a fragrance of rare craftsmanship—the ultimate gourmand escape, captured in a golden bottle.
