Fragrance structure

How it develops

Mandarin and bergamot open it juicy rather than sharp, a soft citrus lasting only minutes before pink pepper adds a warm prickle. Coffee moves in almost immediately behind that — roasted and milky, more dessert than espresso — and settles alongside amyris into a smooth woody centre. The drydown belongs to tonka bean and labdanum, with patchouli and vetiver keeping the sweetness earthed so it never collapses into plain sugar before the end.

CriticismHard to find or discontinued in many markets May smell dated to some Original EDT performance may be only moderate
Comparison notesDUA record should stay as DUA LUX 100ML. Provider page lacks a parsed note list and has a concentration typo, so official/Fragrantica notes carry the structure.
