Perfumes with tonka bean notes
Tonka bean is a fragrance note that comes from the seeds of the tonka bean tree (Dipteryx odorata), which grows mainly in South America, especially in Venezuela. The seeds of this tree are dried and ground to produce tonka bean absolute, a commonly used fragrance in perfumes.
The scent of tonka bean is warm, sweet and sensual, with vanilla and almond notes. It also has slightly spicy and woody nuances. Tonka bean is often used as a fixative in perfumes, meaning it helps to preserve the scent longer and harmonize the different notes in a perfume.
Perfumes with tonka bean give a feeling of comfort and warmth. The sweet and creamy scent often has a soothing and reassuring effect. Tonka bean can be found in both men's and women's perfumes and is often used in oriental, gourmand and vanilla fragrances. It adds a certain depth and sensuality to a perfume and is loved for its pleasant and cozy aroma.
