By the editors · 2 min readDogwood Blossom has a strikingly sparse pyramid: amber as the sole top note and tonka bean as the sole base note. With only two notes, this is essentially a skin-scent construction built entirely around warmth and sweetness.
Amber provides its characteristic warm, resinous, slightly honeyed quality. Tonka bean deepens it with creamy, almond-like sweetness and a faint powdery quality. Together they create a single unified warm accord.
This is a minimal warm amber skin scent — its simplicity means the entire experience is the dry-down, with no arc, no development, no contrast. Confidence is very low given only two notes. Suited to those who want quiet, sweet warmth that stays close to the body.
