By the editors · 2 min readAlmond opens with a clean, slightly bitter edge — not sweet immediately, more like raw marzipan before sugar is added. Plum arrives quickly, giving the opening a dark-fruited softness that rounds out the almond's sharpness.
Chocolate forms the core of the heart — rich and dry rather than milky, pushed deeper by the plum. Together they produce a confectionary density that stops short of cloying.
Sandalwood, amber, and vanilla bring the dry-down to a warm, creamy close. The vanilla is present but measured; sandalwood keeps things from collapsing into pure sweetness. Overall, this is a dessert-register fragrance with enough woody structure to stay grounded.
