Accord

Powdery accord

A powdery accord recalls face powder and soft, dry petals. It softens a blend and leaves a velvety, slightly cosmetic finish.

How a Powdery accord is built

A powdery effect comes from combining orris-like materials, ionones and heliotrope-type notes with soft musks. Vanillic or coumarin-like sweetness rounds it off, giving the familiar feel of face powder.
