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.
- Baked madeleine: no other perfume page lists it — of the 1,980 perfumes analysed in the catalogue, Madeleine Impériale is the only one to use this material.
- Vanilla: conversely, a material of the common core — 35% of the catalogue contains it.
- Woody, citrus, gourmand and spicy: 4 registers of raw materials share its palette, with woody supplying 3 of 7.
