What its composition says

  • Only 5 materials declared, against 7.6 on average in the catalogue: the formula is tight.
  • 1 material on top, 2 in the heart, 2 in the base: the three stages are of comparable size.
  • Liquorice: a niche material, declared by only 11 of the 1,980 perfumes analysed in the catalogue.
  • Vanilla: conversely, a material of the common core — 35% of the catalogue contains it.
