What its composition says
- 3 materials on top, 3 in the heart, 3 in the base: the three stages are of comparable size.
- Papyrus: a niche material, declared by only 17 of the 1,980 perfumes analysed in the catalogue.
- Rose: conversely, a material of the common core — 32% of the catalogue contains it.
- Woody, spicy, floral and citrus: 4 registers of raw materials share its palette, with woody supplying 4 of 9.
