Perfumer's Notes

Tonka bean is a very popular perfume ingredient that is indispensable to the oriental family. Like vanilla and benzoin, tonka bean is used to add sweetness, depth and warmth to a fragrance. Its sweet, intoxicating scent is reminiscent of vanilla with hints of almond, cinnamon, and clove. Use up to 2%, a little bit goes a long way.
