Picks in more detail
Ombré Leather (Eau de Parfum, 2018) feels like smoky leather gloves warmed with spicy saffron, opening on cardamom and saffron and drying down to amber and white moss. Imagine smoky vanilla tobacco, cocoa dust and dried fruit when you spray Tobacco Vanille (Eau de Parfum, 2007); tobacco leaf up top and dried fruits underneath. Black Orchid (2006) comes off as dark truffle, rum soaked plum, vanilla velvet, with black truffle and bitter orange first and patchouli and vanilla at the base.
