Castoreum shares the top with juniper, pink pepper and blackcurrant, setting a leathery, animal note against their sharpness from the first moment. Cannabis and sea water give the heart a green, briny strangeness among its flowers, and a dense base of vetiver, oakmoss, styrax, labdanum and patchouli turns the whole woody and smoky.
