Accord
Sweet accord
A sweet accord gives the impression of sugar, honey or caramel. It rounds sharp edges and makes a blend feel warmer and more edible.
How a Sweet accord is built
Sweetness comes from caramel-like materials such as maltol, honeyed esters, and vanillic notes. A little goes a long way, so it is balanced with fresher or drier materials to keep a blend from becoming heavy.
