In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Cuore by Grande opens with tart Clementine and dry saffron, quickly shifting into a dense heart of stewed plum, fig, and dark liquor. As the initial brightness settles, smoky incense and sticky toffee come forward. A heavy base of labdanum amber, tonka bean, and guaiac wood anchors the scent for chilly autumn evenings.

Reviews →

Paris Oud opens with a resinous orange lift, then settles into a warm amber vanilla core with benzoin, tonka and a faint aromatic touch from lavender. It reads sweet, balsamic and softly spicy rather than rough or smoky. This is a unisex scent that may suit amber lovers who want something approachable and easy to wear…
