Notes, explained
Opening
- Almond Blossom Soft floral with a marzipan edge. Sweet but not gourmand.
- Sugar Plain sweetness. Usually there to round the edges off something else.
- Almond Marzipan and cherry-stone. Sweet with a bitter undertone.
Heart
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Caramel Burnt sugar. Rich, sticky and unapologetically sweet.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
Dry-down
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Benzoin Sweet balsamic resin. Vanilla-adjacent but drier.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
