The "Deep Dive"

The Dry-Down

As it dries down, Accento reveals a beautiful base of warm amber and musk, enriched by the earthy shades of vetiver and the comforting presence of vanilla. This combination creates a symphony of warmth and depth, still maintaining the refined elegance introduced in the opening. The lasting impression is deeply calming, with a slightly sweet and resinous allure from the patchouli that ensures the fragrance remains sophisticated and complex, trailing delicately as it softens over time.
