What Background smells like
Background opens with aniseed, lavender, raspberry and bergamot, moves into a heart of heliotrope, cinnamon, lily of the valley and carnation and dries down to benzoin, sandalwood, tonka bean and amber. The overall character reads spicy, sweet and woody, with floral and oriental behind it. In one line: spicy-sweet.
