What its composition says
- 3 materials on top, 3 in the heart, 3 in the base: the three stages are of comparable size.
- Lily of the valley: barely 4.1% 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.
- Floral, citrus, musky, amber, woody and aromatic: 6 registers of raw materials share its palette, with floral supplying 3 of 9.
Frequencies measured on the Olfact catalogue only.
