The top pairs dark chocolate with orange blossom and cognac, so the first impression is dark, sweet and slightly boozy. In the heart, New Caledonian sandalwood, Egyptian beeswax absolute and honey take over, making the sweetness smoother and warmer. The base of Indonesian patchouli, Virginia cedar, Java vetiver, musk and Venezuelan tonka bean settles that sweetness onto a woody, earthy floor. Ava Luxe Honey and The Dua Brand Milk & Chocolate have a close profile.
