Composition

The heart

Vanilla brings a sweet softness heightened by a spicy touch and an impression of warmth. Bergamot, a citrus, adds a fruity, sweet, and fresh brightness. Musk evokes wood and a warm, animalic nuance. Patchouli rounds out the tier with earthy, damp, and camphorous tones.

Oriental family

Oriental compositions readily draw on soft, resinous, or amber materials that leave an impression of warmth. In the Vanilla Noir accord, sweet and spicy vanilla carries most of this, supported by the warm roundness of musk and the earthy depth of patchouli.
