Fragrance structure
How it develops
Lavender, mint and bergamot give the opening a brief aromatic coolness before the fragrance turns unmistakably edible. Sour cherry, freesia and jasmine thread a lightly fruity-floral brightness through the heart, keeping the sweetness from becoming one-dimensional. Tonka and vanilla then expand with cacao, caramel, praline and milk, while benzoin, sandalwood, leather and cedar build a soft, resinous base. The finish is creamy, dark-edged and gently toasted.
