What does Tonkamande smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, while spring comes well behind. It leans towards leisure time, evenings and daily wear, and most votes read it as feminine.

It opens with almond milk, and the heart is shaped by aldehydes. The base settles on amber, tonka bean and wheat. The scent stays sweet and gourmand, with spicy, woody and powdery touches in the background. Armani Privé Ambre Eccentrico and Comptoir Sud Pacifique Vanille Ambre have a similar profile.
