Notes, explained
Opening
- Plum Dark, wine-like and slightly stewed. Autumnal.
- Peach Fuzzy, warm and slightly creamy. Soft rather than sharp.
Heart
- Violet Powdery, sweet and a bit retro. Parma Violets in flower form.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
Dry-down
- Leather Smoky, dry and a bit animal. Can be a new jacket or an old saddle.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
