Notes

Top notes

  • Aldehydes Sparkling, soapy, waxy fizz; like freshly ironed linen and champagne.
  • Mandarin Soft, sweet and honeyed citrus, gentler than orange.

Heart notes

  • Patchouli Earthy, damp and chocolatey, dark leaf with a camphor edge.

Base notes

  • Vanilla Warm, creamy, sweet and slightly smoky, like a custard-soft cloud.
  • Amber A warm, golden, resin-and-vanilla effect, soft, sweet and enveloping.
  • Heliotrope Almondy, vanilla-like powder with a soft floral warmth.
  • Suede Soft, powdery, faintly animalic leather, plush as brushed skin.
