L'Ombre Des Merveilles

Mostly sweet resinous warmth, soft and slightly powdery. Underneath that, like woodsmoke or a blown-out match.

It opens on black tea, moves through incense, and settles on tonka bean.

• incense: dry resinous smoke, the smell of a church rather than a bonfire
• tonka bean: warm almond-and-vanilla sweetness with a dry hay-like edge

It lasts an average amount of time and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
