"Vanisia was created for Queen Regent Maria Christina of Spain, the great-niece of Queen Marie Antoinette of France. After the passing of Alonxo XIII, the widowed Queen Consort became Queen Regent, and wished to make a style statement like her storied French relative. She commissioned this rich, intriguing fragrance with its undertones of vanilla and Mysore sandalwood. Vanisia endures, unforgettable as royal legacies and sensual as Spanish nights.
