This is a fragrance for those who appreciate gourmand sophistication with woody, earthy undertones. Created by Maison Tahité for unisex wear.

Limited size availability: Currently available primarily in 100ml, with no documented smaller or larger options for those seeking discovery sizes or bulk purchases
