Purpose 50

Top

The top note combines bergamot, pepper, olibanum, pink pepper, incense and chili pepper. Bergamot brings a fruity, sweet and fresh zest. Pepper is dry and herbaceous, pink pepper leans toward sweetness, and chili pepper evokes black pepper and warmth. Olibanum has a woody, mineral relief, while incense carries camphorous and waxy tones.

Heart

The heart brings together rose, vetiver, sandalwood and papyrus. Rose takes on a warm, honeyed and waxy turn here. Vetiver brings a smoky wood with earthy accents, and sandalwood a woody, velvety warmth. Papyrus evokes dry vegetation and the smell of old paper.

Base

Saffron, suede, vanilla and Akigalawood® make up the base. Saffron combines spices, leather and a touch of tar. Suede has a musky, woody and animalic character. Vanilla plays on sugar, spices and warmth, while Akigalawood® offers a peppery wood with patchouli accents.

Spicy family

The spicy family here rests on pepper, pink pepper, chili pepper and saffron, with the warm tones of incense and vanilla. The spices lend relief, a dry or piquant warmth. Vetiver, sandalwood, papyrus and Akigalawood® bring a clearly marked woody dimension to the composition.

Reading the label

The label declares bergamot peel oil, sandalwood album oil and santalol, as well as a rose extract, which echo the notes of the composition. Limonene, linalool, citral and geraniol are among the common constituents of citrus and rose. Eugenol recalls clove, and beta-caryophyllene is found in pepper.
