Olfactory pyramid
The opening of Gris Charnel is spicy, luminous, and intriguing: cardamom brings its aromatic spicy warmth with elegance, fig introduces a juicy and creamy sweetness that contrasts with the spicy intensity, and black tea adds a deep and slightly smoky aromatic dimension that gives character and complexity from the first moment.
In the heart, velvety iris unfolds its powdery and sophisticated elegance of great class, while Bourbon vetiver brings its earthy and slightly smoky depth that contrasts with the delicacy of the iris in a highly refined balance. In the base, creamy sandalwood envelops with a soft and elegant woody warmth, and tonka bean adds its almond and spicy sweetness that prolongs the sillage with an intimate, magnetic, and deeply addictive warmth.
