Pomme Tonka

Maison Berliner · 2024

Floral · Fruity · Sweet

Maison Berliner Pomme Tonka is a unisex gourmand that opens on apple and settles into chocolate, caramel and vanilla. Its longevity and projection are both moderate: it neither fades quickly on skin nor fills a room. The sweet, spicy build makes it easier to carry in cooler weather, and it suits anyone who wants sweetness kept in check. Iranian apple and bergamot give a fruity start. In the heart, coconut, rose, saffron, geranium and cinnamon add a floral and spicy turn. The base is led by tonka bean, cocoa and vanilla, with patchouli and amber adding depth to the sweetness. Mugler Angel (Eau de Parfum) and Alexandre.J The Majestic Amber have a close profile.

Mon Paris Secret

8.2

Jean-Michel Duriez · 2017

Floral · Fruity · Sweet

Jean-Michel Duriez Mon Paris Secret is a unisex fragrance that wraps the sweet, resinous warmth of vanilla, tonka bean absolute and Tolu balm in opoponax and Ceylonese cinnamon. The notes read as one whole rather than a top, heart and base sequence. Mango and Calabrian bergamot add a fruity brightness, while Russian coriander and cinnamon bring spice. Patchouli and Spanish cistus give it an earthy, woody footing, and the vanilla, tonka and Tolu balm soften everything into a powdery, oriental sweetness, with a floral touch running through it.
