What its composition says

  • 3 materials on top, 3 in the heart, 2 in the base: the three stages are of comparable size.
  • Tobacco: barely 4.3% of the catalogue contains it, which makes it the rarest material in its palette.
  • Bergamot: conversely, one of the most widely used materials in the catalogue — 43% of the analysed perfumes contain it.
  • Spicy, woody, citrus and leather: 4 registers of raw materials share its palette, with spicy supplying 3 of 8.
