By the editors · 2 min readAlmond opens the composition — nutty, slightly sweet, with the powdery quality associated with well-made marzipan accords. There's an inherent coziness to this opening that requires no development to establish.
Sandalwood and musk form the base, providing a clean, slightly creamy platform for the almond to rest on. The sandalwood amplifies the almond's creaminess; the musk keeps the finish airy rather than dense. The composition stays in a narrow register throughout — sweet, nutty, and soft. It's the perfumery equivalent of a comfort food: not intellectually challenging, but reliable and pleasant in a specific emotional register. The sparse pyramid limits confidence in the full picture.
