Vanilla

Old thread, but new question:
A friend has asked us to pick up some vanilla. Not being a cook, I figured she wants some vanilla extract - the dark stuff. I bought a 250 ml bottle of Orlando "Aged Premium Vanilla." The sales lady said it came in clara, media clara or oscura. I paid 80 pesos for the oscura.
(Now I find my friend wants a liter!)
Reading the list of ingredients, it sure doesn't sound very "pure":
--purified water
--vanilla extract
--cane alcohol
--vanillin
--propylene glycol
--natural caramel colour
Does this sound like the vanilla we all know and love?

(And now that I think of it, $5.50 Canadian for a 250 ml/8.5 oz bottle doesn't sound all that cheap to me. What's it cost back home?)
