What its composition says

  • 3 materials in the base for 1 on top: the pyramid is built for staying power rather than for the opening.
  • Violet: barely 4.7% of the catalogue contains it, which makes it the rarest material in its palette.
  • White musk: conversely, one of the most widely used materials in the catalogue — 50% of the analysed perfumes contain it.
  • Floral, citrus, woody, musky and amber: 5 registers of raw materials share its palette, with floral supplying 2 of 6.
