ResinousWhat does Poems One Through Twelve smell like?
The body of the fragrance is sweet, gourmand and creamy: the condensed milk brings a soft, milky richness, while opoponax adds a resinous, powdery depth. Ginger lends a spicy warmth, and vetiver draws it together with a dry, woody line that keeps the sweetness in check. The notes read as one whole rather than a sequence of stages. The perfumer is Courtney Rafuse; Maison Margiela Whispers in the Library and Yves Saint Laurent Magnificent Gold have a close profile.
