Colonia Pura

Notes

Top notes

• Bergamot Sparkling peel of a green-gold citrus, juicy and slightly floral, with a bitter edge that keeps it elegant.
• Orange Sweet, sunny peel with a rounded, juicy glow.
• Petitgrain Green, woody and slightly bitter, taken from the leaves and twigs of the orange tree.

Heart notes

• Jasmine Sweet, heady white blossom with an indolic, almost animal warmth.
• Coriander Citrusy, woody and a little soapy spice with a fresh brightness.
• Narcissus Green, bittersweet and slightly narcotic, like bruised spring stems.

Base notes

• Musk Soft, clean, skin-like warmth, from fresh laundry to warm skin.
• Patchouli Earthy, damp and chocolatey, dark leaf with a camphor edge.
• Cedar Dry, pencil-shaving wood, clean and slightly smoky.
