What its composition says
- 4 materials in the base for 2 on top: the pyramid is built for staying power rather than for the opening.
- Ambergris: barely 3.8% 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, woody, citrus, spicy, gourmand, musky and amber: 7 registers of raw materials share its palette, with floral supplying 2 of 9.
Frequencies measured on the Olfact catalogue only.
