The Story
A*Men Pure Tonka is a limited edition that takes the iconic A*Men DNA and wraps it in a warm, gourmand blanket of tonka bean. The opening is a burst of fresh mint and lavender, but the heart quickly turns to rich caramel and honey. The base is all about the tonka, with vanilla and patchouli adding depth. It's a cozy, sweet scent that's perfect for cooler weather.
