Dune
A dry amber floral built on broom — honeyed, hay-like, frankly bitter — framed by aldehydes over a powdery base of vanilla, benzoin and oakmoss. Almost mineral, and it still divides people.
Samsara
An overdose of Mysore sandalwood held up by jasmine and iris. The perfume was built around the material, not the other way round.
