Pana Dora Kropp and Sjal EDP

Description

Kropp & Sjal ("Body & Soul") is Pana Dora's spicy-woody-amber signature, one of the house's original 2019 releases. Perfumer Ibrahim Al-Zoubi opens it with saffron, blood orange, and cardamom before a lush patchouli-iris-jasmine heart gives way to a cozy woody-amber base with a touch of leather. Fragrantica classifies it as an Amber Floral, and it's one of the more Swedish-storytelling-forward scents in the Pana Dora lineup.

Scent Character

• Woody: 28%
• Sweet: 22%
• Floral: 15%
• Spicy: 15%
• Amber & Resinous: 10%
• Fresh: 10%

Translation: a woody-sweet fragrance first, with enough floral lift and warm spice to keep it from feeling heavy. There's no agarwood in the formula. The resinous depth comes from labdanum, balsam fir, and cedar rather than true oud.
