From the brand - "A unisex Amber, Powdery Extrait de Parfum imagined as a sensation of love at first sight, by Jordi Fernandez for D'ORSAY. Mandarin and Pink Peppercorn light the first fuse. Iris Pallida and Tonka Bean open the breach. This Extrait de Parfum captures the hidden web of our attraction. Whether you follow me until daybreak or choose to flee, the memory of Tonka Hysteria will remain."
Fragrantica - "ou genuinely can pick up every listed opening note even though it's blended very well. Opens slightly resinous, lightly spiced from cinnamon, touch of florals and fruitiness all encompassing a very smooth, delicate and powdery vanilla. As it progresses deeper the orris and vanilla starts becoming more prominent and it smells just so classy, nothing gourmand-like so if that's what you're looking for then Tonka Hysteria might not be the one. To me it feels like a toned down YSL Babycat with the vanilla from Celine's Black Tie. Luxurious."
Fragrantica - "Such an underrated gem, lasts forever and absolutely sings on my skin, super creamy and intoxicating. it’s my partners favourite fragrance on me!"
Fragrantica - "This does remind me of Babycat (which I adore) but this is more complex, more exotic, it’s resinous and spicy. I love Rosendo Mateu No5 only on my husband because it turns into potpourri on me, Tonka Hysteria has the best of no5 with no potpourri! A melange of Babycat and RM No5. I think Black Tie is more elegant than Babycat but I still preferred Babycat for being more frothy and sweet (I don’t always care for something more elegant). But Tonka Hysteria seems a bit more complex and spicier than Black Tie. What a gem this is if these are your type of scents. Unisex and long lasting."
Fragrantica - "First of all, I do get some similarities with Babycat, however I feel it leans more gourmand and over all a better scent on my skin. Although I do love Babycat as well. This just feels like it's another level when it comes to compliments.Gotta look into a full bottle. The smoothness and creaminess are just so inviting."
Fragrantica - "Tonka, a chocolate-leaning benzoin, smoky leather nuances, resins and of course, vanilla. As a winter scent, it’s excellent. The name had me convinced I wouldn’t like it, but it surprised me in the best way because it actually smells refined and luxurious. Not quite a gourmand, though it does have a sweet edge; one that feels comforting rather than cloying. As it settles, all the soft elements gather and form a powdery, incense-tinged vanilla. Spicy, mysterious, and quietly seductive."
