Notes, explained
Opening
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Plum Dark, wine-like and slightly stewed. Autumnal.
- Cinnamon Sweet heat. Reads festive, sometimes to a fault.
Heart
- Absinthe Bitter wormwood and anise. Green, boozy and slightly wicked.
- Damask Rose The rich, jammy, honeyed rose. Deep and slightly wine-like.
Dry-down
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
