Ellis Brooklyn creates accessible, high-quality fragrances with a focus on clean, wearable compositions. The brand has earned a reputation for delivering sophisticated scents without pretension or excessive price tags, making them a go-to for those seeking everyday luxury.

Vanilla Milk opens with a creamy lactonic accord backed by frangipani, jasmine, and peony, immediately establishing a soft, powdery character. The heart deepens this sweetness with bourbon vanilla and Madagascar vanilla, layered with cacao pod for a gentle gourmand quality that avoids being cloying. Amyris and sandalwood in the base provide a woody framework, while benzoin and musk ground the composition with a subtle creaminess that lingers close to the skin.

This is an understated gourmand for someone who wants sweetness without the sugar rush, pairing well with those drawn to comfort scents that still feel refined. The powdery, vanilla-forward DNA makes it suitable year-round, though it shines during cooler months when gourmands feel most natural. If you're drawn to The Romantic, The Hedonist, and The Reverie, Vanilla Milk will likely resonate.

Fragrance Notescommunity verified
Top · 0–30 min
Milk
Milk
Warm, slightly sweet, and comforting, milk in perfumery is achieved through lactonic molecules that evoke fresh dairy with a gentle creaminess. It adds an intimate, nurturing quality that makes fragrances feel skin-close and gently sensuous. Often combined with musks and vanilla to create the clean skin family of contemporary fragrances.
Frangipani
Frangipani
Creamy, tropical, and deeply floral, frangipani (plumeria) is the scent of warm Pacific nights, a lush sweetness with waxy, slightly rubbery facets. It's more complex than it first appears, with coconut-like creaminess and faint spice underneath. A note that transports immediately and unmistakably.
Jasmine
Jasmine
Intoxicating, heady, and slightly animalic, jasmine is one of the few flowers that smells as rich in a bottle as it does climbing a garden wall at dusk. It has an almost fleshy, indolic quality that stops it reading as purely 'clean.' Jasmine is a workhorse in both feminine and masculine perfumery, adding depth and soul.
Peony
Peony
Light, watery, and fresh with a clean floral sweetness that never feels heavy. Peony reads as modern and optimistic, the scent equivalent of a spring wardrobe refresh. It blends seamlessly with other florals and is a common building block in sheer, easy-to-wear feminine fragrances.
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Bourbon Vanilla
Bourbon Vanilla
Named after the Bourbon Islands (now Reunion), Bourbon vanilla is one of the world's most prized vanilla varieties with a rich, creamy, slightly smoky, and exceptionally complex character. It has greater depth and less simple sweetness than Tahitian varieties, making it the preferred choice for serious perfumery work.
Madagascar Vanilla
Madagascar Vanilla
The world's dominant commercial vanilla variety, grown primarily in Madagascar, with a classic, balanced vanilla character: warm, sweet, and creamy with a woody undertone. Madagascar vanilla is the reference-point vanilla in perfumery, widely used for its excellent quality and reliable character. The benchmark against which other vanillas are measured.
Cacao Pod
Cacao Pod
The outer shell of the cacao fruit has a raw, earthy, slightly fruity-woody character that is less sweet and more complex than processed cocoa or chocolate. Cacao pod in perfumery adds a naturalistic, slightly fermented depth to compositions, evoking chocolate's origins before the sweetness is added.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Benzoin
Benzoin
Sweet, warm, and balsamic, benzoin resin smells like vanilla mixed with incense, with a powdery, slightly medicinal edge. It adds a comforting warmth and fixative quality to oriental fragrances, and blends beautifully with spices. Often used to smooth and round off sharp edges in complex base notes.
Amyris
Amyris
A Caribbean wood oil often used as an affordable alternative to sandalwood, amyris has a soft, slightly sweet, and creamy woodiness with a faintly smoky quality. While less complex than true sandalwood, it has a pleasant warmth and good tenacity that makes it useful as a base note extender. Often found in the drydown of accessible woody fragrances.
Musk
Musk
The base layer of almost every modern fragrance, a soft, warm, skin-like scent that extends longevity and bridges other notes together. Natural musk was once derived from deer (now banned); today's musks are synthetic and range from clean and soapy to dark and animalic. The right musk makes a fragrance smell like 'you.'
Sandalwood
Sandalwood
Creamy, smooth, and milky with a soft, skin-like warmth that clings beautifully. True Mysore sandalwood is one of perfumery's most precious ingredients, simultaneously wood and skin, never cold or sharp. It rounds off sharp edges in any composition and makes the wearer smell subtly, irresistibly warmer.
