What its composition says
- 4 materials in the heart, against 3 on top and 2 in the base: the heart carries the composition.
- Nutmeg: barely 3.5% 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, musky, spicy and citrus: 5 registers of raw materials share its palette, with floral supplying 3 of 9.
