What its composition says

  • 12 materials declared, against 7.6 on average in the catalogue: the formula is fuller than usual.
  • 6 materials in the base for 2 on top: the pyramid is built for staying power rather than for the opening.
  • Cashmere wood: barely 3.0% 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.
