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.
- Cypress: its rarest material, which only 45 of the 1,980 perfumes analysed in the catalogue contain — about one in 44.
- Patchouli: conversely, a material of the common core — 26% of the catalogue contains it.
Frequencies measured on the Olfact catalogue only.
