Love, Don't Be Shy

Orange blossom and caramel over a very sweet vanilla base. An unabashed gourmand, often cited as the best marshmallow accord out there.

A caramelised vanilla approached through fruit rather than spice, by way of plum and cherry. The musk beneath is thin: the sugar is what holds it together.
