Notes

Top notes

  • Spicy Notes General warm, peppery accord of dry spices, used when a house does not name the individual spices.
  • Rum Warm, boozy cane spirit with sweet, woody depth.

Heart notes

  • Tuberose Heady, creamy, buttery white flower with a rubbery-camphor edge.
  • Leather Dry, supple and slightly smoky, like worn hide.
  • Iris Cool, buttery, powdery and slightly earthy, like lipstick and cold stone; taken from the root, not the flower.

Base notes

  • Tonka Bean Warm, sweet, hay-like and almondy, with a vanilla-tobacco softness.
  • Benzoin Warm, sweet, vanilla-like resin with a soft balsamic glow.
  • Guaiac Wood Smoky, sweet and tea-like wood with a gentle, leathery warmth.
