A scoop of ice cream on a hot summer’s day… a warm, freshly baked cookie during the holidays… for many, vanilla has a timeless association with some of our favorite foods. Its creamy, sweet flavor can be found in desserts around the world, and its distinctly buttery aroma gracing just as many body care products, candles and perfumes. Perhaps one of the most popular fragrances on the market, grab your bottle of PipingRock’s Vanilla Bean Fragrance Oil and delight your family and friends with vanilla-scented products they will truly love!
History
The second most expensive spice in the world (after saffron), vanilla has long been a sought-after commodity. It was first cultivated by the Totonac people centuries ago, who inhabit the eastern coast of Mexico in what is now Veracruz. The vanilla plant was a staple of their culture; according to ancient Totonac mythology, the vanilla plant was born when the Princess Xanat fled with her mortal lover, of which her father did not approve. The lovers died together, creating the very first vanilla orchid.
