No.2 Sève Nouvelle
No.2 Sève Nouvelle by Thomas Kosmala is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with grapefruit, pink pepper and saffron, moves into champaca and tonka bean and dries down to patchouli, cashmere wood, amberwood and labdanum. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Grapefruit Bitter, slightly sweaty citrus. More grown-up than lemon.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
- Saffron Leathery, medicinal and slightly metallic. The signature of modern niche.
Heart
- Champaca Warm magnolia relative — tea-like, fruity and slightly waxy.
- Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
Dry-down
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Cashmere Wood Soft, fuzzy, slightly musky wood. Adds a blurred warmth.
- Amberwood Dry synthetic warmth, sharper than amber. Everywhere in modern masculines.
- Labdanum Sticky, leathery resin. Dark honey and old books.
