Key fragrance characteristics

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The note pyramid of Tonka is shaped as a living composition, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The creative approach of Esteban comes through from the opening to the final trail. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de toilette keeps the depth and body this composition needs.

In the first seconds you sense piquant warm opening notes: Bergamot, Ginger and Pink pepper.

In the heart you meet Cinnamon, Dried Fruits and Patchouli carrying a cinnamon-nutmeg direction.

The olfactory framework rests on these accords: Citrus, Gourmet, Fruit and Wood forming a compact and readable structure. Additional accords such as Spicy add depth to the backdrop. The gender direction is unisex, which clarifies the composition character. In wear duration Middle indicates a stable lasting impression.

From the group perspective the composition is built around Citrus, Spicy, Fruit and Wood.

In summary Tonka reads as a cohesive composition — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. This is the type of composition best experienced through real development.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.
