About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Be 21 by Orlane, launched in 2001, is a discontinued Oriental Woody that opens with a cozy blend of red peach and cardamom. The heart unfolds with pistachio blossom, cashmere wood, and ylang-ylang, leading to a base of tonka bean, vanilla, heliotrope, sandalwood, and orris root. The composition leans heavily on vanilla (100%) and woody (96%) accords, with warm spicy (87%) and powdery (84%) nuances, creating a soft, enveloping trail.

This fragrance suits collectors who appreciate sweet, powdery orientals with a gourmand edge. The red peach and cardamom add a subtle fruity-spicy lift, while the pistachio blossom and ylang-ylang bring a creamy floral touch. The base is rich and comforting, with vanilla, tonka, and heliotrope dominating, grounded by sandalwood and orris. Ideal for evening wear or cooler months, Be 21 is a cozy, elegant choice for those who love vintage sweet woody scents.
