통카빈과 화이트 트러플 엑스트레 드 퍼퓸

Tonka bean perfume runs on coumarin, the crystalline molecule the seed of Dipteryx odorata releases as it dries, somewhere between hay, almond and pipe tobacco. Coumarin made the fougere family possible in 1882 and it still does most of the warm, powdery work in the base of a modern formula. Truffle perfume is rarer: the sulphurous, earthy molecules of Tuber magnatum reconstructed as an accord.

Albatre Sepia is the Premiere Peau tonka and truffle perfume, a 20 percent extrait de parfum by Florian Gallo and Gregoire Balleydier. Raw Alba white truffle is ground against ferric India ink, with Madagascar vanilla that never sweetens and tonka holding the floor. Six hours on skin and the fracture stays open.

Tonka and white truffle · ALBÂTRE SÉPIA: Alba truffle, India ink, vanilla, tonka

What does tonka bean smell like?

Coumarin: hay, almond and tobacco with a powdery warmth. It is the molecule that made the fougere family possible and anchors many modern bases.

What is in Albatre Sepia?

Raw Alba white truffle against ferric India ink, Madagascar vanilla that never sweetens and tonka holding the base. Signed by Florian Gallo and Gregoire Balleydier. 20 percent extrait.

Is truffle really used in perfume?

Yes. White truffle is reconstructed around its sulphurous, earthy molecules; in Albatre Sepia it is set against ink and vanilla rather than played as food.
