Purple
black currant · mandarin orange · pear
Purple opens on black currant, mandarin and pear, bright and fruity. The heart of ylang-ylang, orange blossom and jasmine sambac unfolds a dense white floral. The base of tonka bean, amberwood and white musk leaves a sweet, amber warmth. Made for autumn and winter evenings, when the air turns cool.
