Picks on the nose
Arabians Tonka (2019) reads as sweet saffron leather, tonka with smoky woods, opening on saffron and bergamot and drying down to tonka bean, cane sugar and amber. Expect dark cocoa with creamy vanilla, bitter orange from Chocolate Greedy (2007); candied bitter orange up top and coffee bean and roasted tonka bean underneath. Intense Cafe (Eau de Parfum, 2013) is described as sweet rose coffee, creamy vanilla haze, with vanilla, amber and white musk at the base.
