At a glance
A spiced amber composition from Coty's in-house perfumers, opening on bergamot and spices before a floral heart, closing on amber, musk, and vanilla. Its invented, exotic-sounding name follows a naming pattern common across 1930s perfumery, where evocative but non-literal titles were used to suggest luxury and mystery rather than describe specific ingredients or origins.
