Tonkamande
Eau de Parfum
by Parfumerie Generale



The Scoop
Creamy, comforting almond milk is whipped into airy perfection with fizzy aldehydes until it is as dreamy and weightless as the foam on a cappuccino, but with a hint of marzipan. There is bread baking, not in an overwhelming way, but as if the oven is in the next room and you get just the occasional whiff of wheat and yeast. There is warm, gentle vanilla – as delicate and delectable as a bite of flaky pastry melting on your tongue. Imagine a late morning breakfast in the coziest café in the world – a place where they treat you like family and bring you cake batter to sample while you linger over your coffee. Then take all of those lovely, comforting scents, blend in a bit of soft, soothing powder and inject the magical concoction with the bubbly lightness of dry champagne. Then you will have Tonkamande – a fragrance that embodies contentment. We can’t imagine a nicer way to start the day.

i love gourmands , and if not gourmands then spicier / sweetish . tonkamande is boring as hell . its sweet and floral , way more vanilla than almond (almond has that sharp cherry kinda smell which isnt present in this) . but see i think its a boring vanilla ; it isnt rich , warm , somethin baking in the oven vanilla . tonkamande is a lighter , airy vanilla and a less than medium level of florals . there isnt much complexity to this , there isnt anythin unique to this , in fact when i try to think of at least some kind of positive thing to say that mite lend it some kinda uniqueness i cant think of anythin . and the reason for that is cos its not unique at all . if u like vanillas , which i do , get somethin else . im tellin u if ur thinkin " ohh this kids gotta be exaggerating " and u order a sample , youll smell it and be like " hmmm he was rite "

This is beautiful and unique on it's own but when I layered it with a tiny drop of Kai, it was the best thing I ever smelled in my life. I do these things when I'm playing with a new batch of samples sometimes. The combo is weird mix of gardenia, almond and vanilla but on my skin it works magically.

I don't get any of the gourmand notes that I was hoping for - not a whiff of Tonka bean or baking bread or vanilla or almond. All I get is a headachy overwhelming perfumy perfume that reminds me of Donna Karan Cashmere, albeit without that scent's slighly richer and more elegant smoothness. SCRUBBER TO THE MAX. Sad face. I had such high hopes.

The best vanilla without screaming VANILLA. Just the right amount of creamy almond milk, vanilla & woods. I smell no hay nor do I think gourmand when I smell this. It can be described as "creamy fresh"

Smells very warm & silky. I smell the creamy milk tones & tonka. It's a very warm and subtle scent.

This is good, yeah. An elaborate, classy, feminine thing. I smell no foody stuff whatsoever. Just a ladies' scent, done to perfection. I *think* it reminds me of Chanel's Allure and of Desnuda. The kind of smell that is friends with everybody - it is a bit non-descript but still very likeable.

On me, lots of aldehyde and alcohol...not much else. Made me queasy after two minutes. I love almond and was looking forward to something special in Tonkamande. Instead I had to put my nose into coffee beans.

This stuff is freaking amazing!!!!!! I am in love. This just might be holy grail material here people. I smell the almond milk, vanilla, the tonka bean, and yeah, a touch of hay and sandalwood too. It's dreamy, creamy and delicious! This could be a great day or night scent. There's a note in here that smells like an apricot or some wonderful peach like flower. I'm actually not sure what exactly that note is but it finishes off the scent perfectly. The silage is regular and it's only been about an hour and a half on my skin so right now I can't comment on it's lasting power. The more I smell my arm, the more it reminds me of another perfume but I cannot say what perfume that is. It just reminds me of SOMETHING..... Tonkamande is soft, sweet, intriguing, not at all powdery and simply wonderful!!!!!
