Prices span about $10 to $252, with most core pieces in the $70-$105 band. Top accords are woody, spicy, fresh, citrus and floral. Standout live picks: Eclat de Tubereuse (white tuberose, creamy sandalwood, spicy cardamom, $101.55), Orange Sanguine (bright blood orange with peppery floral woods, $103.50), Santal Carmin (creamy vanilla sandalwood with zesty lime, $69.99), Oud Saphir (smoky leather, vanilla warmth, resinous oud, $157.45), Trefle Pur (green citrus tea with basil, woody moss, $9.99).
