Standout live pieces: Patchouli ($24,.32, earthy patchouli incense, cedary and softly spiced), Bois de Oud ($14,.07, smoky oud incense with peppery, powdery woods), Tonka ($24,.03, creamy tonka sweetness with powdery musk), Mocha ($24,.00, warm toffee custard drizzled with caramel) and Santal ($24,.94, powdery sandalwood, fig wood and saffron spice).
