More about Byredo Havana Tonka
Havana Tonka is an Extrait de Parfum in Byredo's Night Veils collection, built around roasted tonka bean in a warm, nocturnal setting. Bergamot, pink pepper and rum open with light before a caramelised crème brûlée accord adds gourmand depth. At the heart, tobacco leaf brings a dry, smoky warmth, softened by violet, cashmere wood and supple white suede. The base reveals tonka in its roasted, sweet and slightly resinous facet, anchored by patchouli, benzoin and skin musks that keep it close to the skin. Composed by Fanny Bal, it is presented in the 70 ml Night Veils bottle.
