It is a dark picture, but warm rather than cold, and the brand calls the result addictive. The scent is built around that atmosphere more than around a single flower or fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTonka, styrax and cedar\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTonka absolute gives the sweet, almond-like warmth the name promises, and styrax resins add a balsamic, slightly smoky depth. Atlas cedar keeps a dry wood line through the middle, and orange flower absolute puts a soft floral note into all that darkness. These are the notes the brand quotes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMusks and vanilla\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMusks lie under everything, the brand says, and drops of vanilla sweeten it. Drops, not a flood: the sweetness is a finish on a dark, resinous scent. The brand's last picture is warm skin and resinous wood, which is where the musks and the resins meet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCool evenings\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWarm, resinous and sweet at the edges, this belongs to autumn, winter and the evening. Two sprays on the chest or the wrists are enough, because the Eau de Parfum strength and the resins make a heavier hand feel dense. Apply it to skin that is warm and clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeople who like warm, dark, sweet-leaning perfumes with resin and wood, and who are happy to wear something noticeable. It suits evenings, dinners and cold weather. If you prefer fresh, citrus or green scents it will feel heavy, and on very warm days a lighter perfume is more comfortable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose Le Labo Tonka 25\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe brand shows its cards: five quoted materials plus the vanilla, and a mood that matches them. Tonka leads, but the resins and the cedar keep it in the dark rather than in the dessert. The bottle is the 50 ml Eau de Parfum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhich concentration and size is Tonka 25?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEau de Parfum, 50 ml.
