Straight to Heaven
Straight to Heaven by Kilian is a masculine-leaning eau de parfum from 2007 in the luxury price tier. It opens with rum and nutmeg, moves into patchouli and cedarwood and dries down to vanilla, musk and sandalwood. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Rum Boozy, sweet and warm. Adds a grown-up edge to gourmands.
- Nutmeg Warm, woody and slightly sweet. Cosy without being gourmand.
Heart
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
Dry-down
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
