Description

About

A rich and decadent gourmand fragrance inspired by the warmth of desert sands. The scent opens with a spicy blend of cardamom and cinnamon before melting into a sweet heart of vanilla and sugar. The base leaves a lingering, luxurious trail of nutty praline and smooth tonka bean.
A concentrated perfume oil with a warm, sweet, spicy profile. Bergamot, cinnamon, cardamom, and amber lead into musk, elemi, vanilla, and sugar. Almond, tonka, praline, woods, and Ambroxan make the base creamy and rich. It layers gourmand sweetness over aromatic spice and a soft musky foundation.
