The top holds freesia, Dominican bitter almond and clove, so floral freshness meets almond and spice from the start. In the heart, Dominican hoya, Dominican honey and Laotian beeswax soften and sweeten the scent. The base of frankincense, cocoa absolute, vetiver and Indonesian patchouli adds a powdery, earthy, faintly smoky warmth.
Its oriental, gourmand character is balanced by the lightness of the fresh accord. Hermès Vétiver Tonka and Shiseido Zen Secret Bloom have a close profile.
