## Notes

- base: Skin Musks, Roasted Tonka Bean Absolute, Patchouli Essential Oil, Benzoin Resinoid

## A darker kind of sweetness

With **Havana Tonka**, the interesting question is what surrounds the sweetness. Byredo sets roasted tonka against rum, tobacco and suede, while a crème brûlée accord gives the opening a distinctly gourmand direction. Read together, those notes suggest warmth with a textured, woody counterpoint.

Part of Byredo’s Night Veils collection, this is an extrait de parfum. The note pyramid follows the house’s published composition.

## The character

Rum and tobacco bring depth; violet, cashmere woods and white suede offer a softer counterpoint. The base returns to roasted tonka, skin musks, patchouli and benzoin. It is this balance of sweetness, woods and texture that makes the composition worth exploring.
