Cognac, rum and whisky notes in perfume
Dark spirit notes, cognac, rum, whisky and bourbon, bring a sweet, woody warmth somewhere between oak cask, macerated fruit and vanilla. They make dense, cocooning evening fragrances, often paired with cinnamon, tobacco, caramel or smoky woods. A much-loved family for autumn and winter.
