Featured notes
Learn more about the top, middle, and bottom notes in this fragrance.
Tonka beans are tiny, shriveled, black seeds from the Tonka tree found in Central and South America. Their slightly sweet, vanillic, and smoky hay scent adds a spicy, gourmand edge to a fragrance. Tonka beans work best in spicy and sweet scents featuring similar notes: clove, vanilla, heliotrope, bitter almonds, labdanum, cinnamon, etc. Their vanilla and hay-like scent is ideal for fall or winter, but usually blends well enough to wear any time you need a little sweet, warm spice to liven up the citrus or wood notes in a fragrance.

  • Earthy and spicy aroma that many find intoxicating and unique; ideal for colder weather.
  • Long-lasting fragrance that continues to receive compliments for its mature, refined scent with hints of cedar and tonka bean.
  • Some users mention the initial scent being overwhelmingly strong or peppery but it mellows out beautifully, resulting in a rich and complex blend.
  • The fragrance leans towards a unisex appeal, appealing for both men and women; however, some feel it is too masculine or strong as the opening can be overpowering.
This fragrance is perfect for individuals who enjoy complex, earthy, and spicy scents, particularly those who appreciate African Rooibos's unique tea notes. If you prefer a mature and long-lasting fragrance with a unisex appeal, this will likely be a delightful addition to your collection.

    Lovely scent profile. A little dry.
    The scent profile of this fragrance is divine. I love that it smells different on me versus my husband. However, it’s very dry on the backend and therefore doesn’t last very long.

    Very beautiful
    This is a sweet yet mildly spicy scent but it’s not gourmand sweet. First spray I get a bit of a chai latte sort of scent and as it dries down you get a beautiful Smokey black tea scent. It’s very unisex. I’m a woman and would happily share this with my husband. The mix of these notes is a work of art. This is a more mature scent and for the person who likes more complex scents.

    Soapy scented
    This was not at all what I expected. It has a very soapy floral smell to me and is very overpowering. Instantly setting me into sneezing. Really disappointed as I love Rooibos tea and was hoping for that scent.
