Tonka

MasculineRated 3.9/5 · 267 reviews

fig leaf · ginger · lemon

Tonka opens on bright lemon and a quiet touch of ginger, then fig leaf and white peach soften the breath. Deeper down, tonka bean blends with peru balsam and sandalwood for a warm, woody, amber depth. Wear it in autumn or winter, when the evenings lengthen and the air turns dry.
