How it moves

You meet lemon, kalamansi and tagete at the door. By the half hour it has become cinnamon, sage, cardamom and praline. The base is patchouli, Tonka Bean, amber and cedar. That is the bit on your scarf the next morning.

Who made it

Olivier Cresp composed it in 2005, for Paco Rabanne in France. A rock-and-roll masculine built on praline, tagete and cinnamon, remembered for its distinctive sweet-woody drydown.
