What its composition says

  • 4 materials in the base for 1 on top: the pyramid is built for staying power rather than for the opening.
  • Osmanthus: its rarest material, which only 37 of the 1,980 perfumes analysed in the catalogue contain — about one in 54.
  • White musk: conversely, one of the most widely used materials in the catalogue — 50% of the analysed perfumes contain it.
  • Floral, amber, citrus, musky, woody and gourmand: 6 registers of raw materials share its palette, with floral supplying 3 of 8.
