SpicyWhat does Tonkandy smell like?
The opening pairs the brightness of bergamot with the spice of cinnamon leaf and black pepper. In the heart, fudge, geranium and davana take over; the fudge pushes the scent towards the gourmand side while geranium adds a floral touch. The base of bourbon vanilla absolute, musk and tonka bean dries down soft and sweet. Fruity and synthetic tones also run through the accords.
Maison Margiela On a Date and Maison Berliner Pomme Tonka have a close profile.
