By the editors · 2 min readLavender and chocolate create an unusual opening—aromatic herbaceousness meets rich cocoa sweetness. Cinnamon and rose emerge in the heart, adding warm-spicy depth and a floral contrast to the chocolate. Benzoin and vanilla contribute a balsamic sweetness that smooths the transition to the base. Amber, patchouli, and opoponax form a resinous earthy dry-down with musk providing a soft skin-scent finish. The composition evolves significantly from aromatic gourmand to warm ambery wood, with good longevity and moderate sillage. Ideal for evening wear in cooler seasons, its complex character suits dates or special occasions.
