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.
  • Almond: barely 2.6% of the catalogue contains it, which makes it the rarest material in its palette.
  • Vanilla: conversely, a material of the common core — 35% of the catalogue contains it.
  • Gourmand, floral, spicy and amber: 4 registers of raw materials share its palette, with gourmand supplying 3 of 7.
