In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Avatar by Hilde Soliani is a playful, airy gourmand built around cold vanilla ice cream, spun sugar, and warm caramel.

Reviews →

Elysia by M by Zhor is a modern gourmand scent launched in 2024. It centers on a prominent caramel and sugar opening that transitions into a heart of bourbon vanilla and white orchid. On skin, the base of musk and benzoin creates a warm, powdery finish that works well for both men and women during cooler days.
