What its composition says

  • Only 5 materials declared, against 7.6 on average in the catalogue: the formula is tight.
  • 2 materials on top, 1 in the heart, 2 in the base: the three stages are of comparable size.
  • Quince: a niche material, declared by only 7 of the 1,980 perfumes analysed in the catalogue.
  • Rose: conversely, a material of the common core — 32% of the catalogue contains it.
