How it moves

It arrives on caramel and bergamot — bright, immediate, gone before you have decided about it. Underneath, benzoin and vanilla settle in and take over. What is left hours later is musk, vanilla and benzoin, and that is the part people follow you for.

Who made it

Daniela Andrier composed it in 2011, for Prada in Italy. Daniela Andrier's 2011 caramel-and-benzoin gourmand, one of the first mainstream fragrances to build an entire composition on caramel.
