## What Does Vanille Fatale Smell Like?

Tom Ford describes it as "a beguiling, deeply seductive scent." Its site lists:

-   **Top and heart:** Safraleine, frangipani and coffee absolute
-   **Base:** mahogany wood accord, roasted barley and vanilla resinoid

Our February 2024 post described the vanilla resinoid as the star, with a mix of deep woods, coffee and roasted barley around it.

**Our take:** the mix of coffee and roasted barley points to a dark, slightly bitter vanilla, not a sugary one. We haven't smelled it.

## Is Vanille Fatale a New Fragrance?

Not necessarily. [Fragrantica](https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Tom-Ford/Vanille-Fatale-48029.html) lists a Tom Ford Vanille Fatale dating to 2017 with a longer note list that includes rum, myrrh, saffron, plum and tobacco. We can't tell how the 2024 version relates to it: a reformulation, a new edition or the same scent in a new bottle. The 2024 announcement stressed the new chocolate-brown bottle design.

## What Changed Since 2024, and How Much Does It Cost Now?

Tom Ford's page lists the 1.7 fl oz at $405, $10 above the February 2024 price of $395, and mentions a 1.0 fl oz option without a price. It limits orders to 8 per customer.

## What Is Confirmed, and What Is Not?

**Confirmed:** the notes, 1.7 oz price and size come from Tom Ford's [product page](https://www.tomfordbeauty.com/products/vanille-fatale-eau-de-parfum). The 2024 prices and bottle description come from our announcement.

**Not confirmed:** the 1 oz price today, the relationship to the 2017 fragrance, and Sephora's current stock.

**September 21, 2026 update:** we re-checked Tom Ford's page. The 1.7 oz size is $10 more than at our 2024 post.
