How it moves
Star anise, citruses and elemi hit first, the way an opening line should. Underneath, tea, jasmine and neroli settle in and take over. What is left hours later is cacao, patchouli, sandalwood and cedar, and that is the part people follow you for.
Who made it
Beatrice Piquet composed it in 2004, for Guerlain in France. Beatrice Piquet's masculine L'Instant paired anise and elemi with a then-novel cacao note, and became a quiet cult favourite of the mid-2000s.
