Top notes are Saffron, Marigold, Nectarine and Almond; middle notes are Basil, Amber, Jasmine, Cedar and Freesia; base notes are Woody Notes, Powdery Notes, Rice, Bellflower, Palisander Rosewood and Musk.
Reviews →Amande Brûlée by Kilesa is a unisex gourmand built around cocoa, custard, almond and vanilla, with yuzu and eucalyptus giving the opening a brighter, greener lift. It sounds creamy and sweet on paper, but the floral saffron heart and patchouli musk base suggest more shape than a simple dessert scent. Best for shoppers…
