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.
  • Custard: no other perfume page lists it — of the 1,980 perfumes analysed in the catalogue, Pastel Rumours is the only one to use this material.
  • White musk: conversely, one of the most widely used materials in the catalogue — 50% of the analysed perfumes contain it.
  • Gourmand, fruity, spicy and musky: 4 registers of raw materials share its palette, with gourmand supplying 4 of 7.
