By the editors · 2 min readBerlin opens with stewed plum and peach over softened bergamot, the fruit thick and slightly syrupy rather than fresh. The heart unfolds into a dense bouquet — tuberose, jasmine, ylang — banked by heliotrope and lily-of-the-valley that lend a powdery, cosmetic quality.
By the dry-down the composition tilts into the gourmand register: tonka and benzoin warm a base of sandalwood and amber, with caramel and vanilla giving the sweetness a chewy, almost confectionary weight. It reads cold-weather and dressy, unmistakably late-eighties in its appetite for volume — a perfume that lingers on a coat collar long after the wearer has left the room.
