Orchid opens lush and mysterious. Orchid and jasmine meet the tart, inky fruit of blackcurrant over an earthy note of truffle, and the effect is heady from the start.

The heart deepens with spice, lotus and creamy ylang-ylang, warm, sensual and a little unusual.

Vanilla, dark chocolate, patchouli, amber and sandalwood make the base rich and sweet, with the patchouli keeping a damp, earthy edge.

A dramatic, spice-warmed floral for evenings, autumn and winter, worn by women and men alike.
