Sora Dora Brocéliande Extrait

Description

Named for the legendary Brittany forest of Arthurian legend, this is Sora Dora's citrus-to-spice shapeshifter. It opens bright and citrusy with lime, lemon and bergamot, moves through a ginger, coriander, iris and cinnamon heart, and dries down into caramel, vanilla, castoreum, civet and styrax. Some reviewers compare the caramel-cinnamon-citrus combination to cola, while others focus on the animalic depth from castoreum and civet in the base.

Translation: a citrus-sweet-spiced fragrance that turns animalic and resinous in the base. There's no agarwood in Brocéliande's pyramid. The material driving that base is castoreum, civet and styrax.

FAQ

Is Brocéliande a men's or women's fragrance?
Unisex. It's marketed and worn as a fragrance for women and men.

Does it really contain oud?
No. There's no agarwood in the published note pyramid; the deep base character comes from castoreum, civet and styrax instead.

Does it smell like cola?
Some reviewers describe the caramel-cinnamon-citrus combination as cola-like, though the animalic castoreum/civet base pushes it in a more complex direction than a straightforward gourmand.
