— An almond in the opening, crisp and milky, frankly announcing the dessert.
— The heart is a surprise: the cinnamon and the African orange blossom pull towards oriental pastry, and the Turkish rose keeps the whole thing from turning syrupy.
— Then the tonka bean, the vanilla and the amberwood settle in for the evening — toasted almond, warm sugar, soft wood.
No aggressive oud despite the name: it is there to give the base body, not to cut through. Anyone buying this bottle is buying an almond-vanilla, and they will not be disappointed.
Register: autumn, winter, evenings.
Long wear, sustained projection. This is a fragrance that leaves a trace in a room — go easy.

The blue bottle, and yet it is the warmest of the series.
— It opens straight onto honey and agarwood — a thick entrance, with no citrus phase, that tells you at once where you are going.
— The cinnamon and the Madagascan vanilla then lay down a thickness of spiced brioche.
— The leather in the base changes everything: it keeps the fragrance from becoming a dessert. It is that honey-leather tension which gives it its character — sweet up front, tanned behind.
Register: deep cold season. This is an overcoat fragrance. In the sun, the honey and the cinnamon become overwhelming; on a wool collar in January, they are exactly where they belong.
Long wear, sustained projection: two sprays are enough, three is already a lot.

A fruit and a caramel, separated by an iris. That is the right way to sum this fragrance up, and it is also what makes it interesting.
— The apple and the grape open on a note of fresh juice, almost of pressed grapes.
— The iris arrives and changes the temperature: powdery, a little cool, a little cosmetic in the good sense of the word — the kind of note that gives an impression of quality straight away. The white woods and the patchouli hold the structure.
— The base is the real reward: caramel, suede and Peru balsam. Suede is a soft leather, that of a new glove; Peru balsam brings a smell of smoked vanilla. The whole thing becomes warm and comfortable without ever falling into pure sugar, thanks to the iris that keeps pulling upward.
Register: autumn and winter, and rather in the evening. Mostly worn by women, but nothing in the formula forbids it to a man who likes caramel-leather bases.
Long wear, moderate projection.
