Notes: mandarin, pink pepper, Peruvian pepper, woodland aromatics, tonka bean
Described as "exotic and indulgent", Tonka opens with a pleasant citrus-peppery coupling that's reminiscent of a Dolce & Gabbana masculine offering.
Comprising of mid notes that are termed as 'woodland aromatics', it's mostly a gentle and silky woody mélange that becomes spicier over time. With the composition exuding a warm earthiness, the tonka bean takes some time to fully surface. But, when it does, it places an emphasis on its vanillic and spicy properties.
With Tonka being the fourth Laboratory Perfumes release, it's encouraging to sense an improvement over their last three questionable efforts. And although one wouldn't deem it as exotic or indulgent, it's still quite pleasant and would make an ideal office sent.
Projection is moderate, with respectable tenacity.
