What its composition says
- 3 materials on top, 2 in the heart, 3 in the base: the three stages are of comparable size.
- Ambergris: barely 3.8% 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.
- Citrus, woody, musky and amber: 4 registers of raw materials share its palette, with citrus supplying 3 of 8.
