Reviewed profile

Dark chocolate and violet over vanilla and cinnamon, with pear softening the top. It runs rich and dessert-warm, a sweet gourmand floral with a cocoa-dusted heart.

Projection, risk and texture describe how a fragrance behaves in a room and on skin.

Warmth and sweetness are derived from composition and do not carry that caveat.
