By the editors · 2 min readYes I Am Collector Edition 2021 opens with raspberry, lemon, and bergamot — a bright berry-citrus combination that reads cheerful and energetic. Gardenia, jasmine, orange blossom, and rose develop at the heart, adding a lush, multi-floral depth that balances the fruity opening.
Amberwood, sandalwood, benzoin, vanilla, cardamom, and caramel form a substantial warm base. Caramel is dominant here — sweet, slightly buttery — while benzoin adds a balsamic resinous warmth and cardamom contributes soft spice. The arc moves from bright fruity-floral to a warm, sweet-spiced oriental base. The gourmand caramel finish is the most distinctive element.
