This eau de cologne combines two materials that bring out the best in each other: vanilla and saffron. Vanilla’s creamy sweetness hugs spicy saffron’s honeyed earthiness in all the right places. The drydown reveals a fruity flair for added playfulness.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
It suits the unhurried warmth of an afternoon visit that stretches into evening. Creamy vanilla feels welcoming at close quarters, while saffron’s earthy spice keeps the sweetness from becoming sugary—a soft presence with a distinct edge.
How to wear
Mild to cool weather is a natural fit for the creamy vanilla and warm spice. Begin with one or two sprays on skin, letting the citrus opening settle before adding more. In warmer conditions, use a lighter application so the gourmand sweetness does not dominate.
Who it’s for
For those who enjoy vanilla with spice and an earthy counterpoint rather than straightforward confectionery sweetness. Its citrus lift, fruity nuance and woody undertone will appeal to tastes that favour rounded gourmands with contrast.

The nose
Natasha Côté created Baunilha e Açafrão around the contrast between creamy vanilla and spicy saffron. Family influences led her toward perfumery after studying marketing, and she identifies Canadian culture as an influence on her creative work. Here, saffron takes the leading role, with citrus and coriander seed bringing freshness to the gourmand composition.
Granado’s story
Founded as a pharmacy in Rio de Janeiro in 1870, Granado connects its Brazilian heritage with contemporary fragrance and body care. Archival labels, illustrations and pharmacy objects inform its visual identity, while natural-origin ingredients and attention to formulation remain central to the house.
Baunilha e Açafrão’s concept
Baunilha e Açafrão succeeded Granado’s earlier Colônia Baunilha within the Vintage line rather than simply renaming it. Natasha Côté’s composition gives saffron a more prominent role, setting its spicy character against creamy vanilla and introducing citrus and coriander seed to lighten the sweetness.
Extra info
The Portuguese name means “Vanilla and Saffron,” yet Granado identifies saffron as the composition’s protagonist. The formula contains 88% natural-origin ingredients and undergoes maceration to help its notes harmonize.
