{"title":"Peru Balsam","description":"\u003cp\u003ePeru balsam is the resinous exudate of Myroxylon balsamum, a tropical tree native to Central America despite the misleading name. Harvesters score the trunk with vertical cuts and collect the dark, syrupy resin that seeps over the following weeks. The crude balsam smells warm, sweet, vanillic, slightly cinnamon-edged, with hints of chocolate and smoke that make it a natural anchor for amber-oriental bases. The note appears in Guerlain Shalimar, Caron Tabac Blond, and many heritage-leather compositions, and continues to feature in modern niche amber releases including Roja Parfums Britannia and Amouage Imitation. It pairs well with vanilla, labdanum, benzoin, and tobacco for autumn and winter wear.

The heart is wholly original. Roasted chestnut and guaiac wood creating a smoky, nutty warmth that is simultaneously cosy and intriguing, while juniper berries add a gin-like freshness that lifts the composition. Cashmeran, vanilla, and Peru balsam round the base into a velvety, balsamic embrace that clings to skin like a favourite cashmere sweater.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cfigure class=\"product__figure\"\u003e\u003cimg width=\"2048\" height=\"1152\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0959\/5489\/5129\/files\/10595767812377_s1_v1_3756fc5f-eb7d-49ef-89a7-d0196c6e42f8.jpg?width=1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0959\/5489\/5129\/files\/10595767812377_s1_v1_3756fc5f-eb7d-49ef-89a7-d0196c6e42f8.jpg?width=800 800w, https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0959\/5489\/5129\/files\/10595767812377_s1_v1_3756fc5f-eb7d-49ef-89a7-d0196c6e42f8.jpg?width=1200 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0959\/5489\/5129\/files\/10595767812377_s1_v1_3756fc5f-eb7d-49ef-89a7-d0196c6e42f8.jpg?width=1600 1600w, https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0959\/5489\/5129\/files\/10595767812377_s1_v1_3756fc5f-eb7d-49ef-89a7-d0196c6e42f8.jpg?width=2048 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 749px) 100vw, 70vw\" alt=\"Sospiro Contralto EDP on charcoal linen with a small copper bowl of saffron threads\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"\u003e\u003cfigcaption\u003eRoasted chestnut and guaiac smoke over vanilla-balsam velvet.\u003c\/figcaption\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\n\u003chr class=\"pc-description-rule\"\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"pc-description-heading\"\u003eThe Composition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-orange-blossom\"\u003eOrange Blossom\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-pink-pepper\"\u003ePink Pepper\u003c\/a\u003e, and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-clove\"\u003eClove\u003c\/a\u003e open with honeyed spice and floral warmth. \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-chestnut\"\u003eChestnut\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-guaiac-wood\"\u003eGuaiac Wood\u003c\/a\u003e, and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-juniper-berries\"\u003eJuniper Berries\u003c\/a\u003e compose a smoky, nutty heart of rare depth. \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-cashmeran\"\u003eCashmeran\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-vanilla\"\u003eVanilla\u003c\/a\u003e, and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-peru-balsam\"\u003ePeru Balsam\u003c\/a\u003e close with velvety, balsamic softness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"pc-notes\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"pc-notes__column\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"pc-notes__label\"\u003eTop\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cul class=\"pc-notes__list\"\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-orange-blossom\"\u003eOrange Blossom\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-pink-pepper\"\u003ePink Pepper\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-clove\"\u003eClove\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"pc-notes__column\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"pc-notes__label\"\u003eHeart\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cul class=\"pc-notes__list\"\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-chestnut\"\u003eChestnut\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-guaiac-wood\"\u003eGuaiac Wood\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-juniper-berries\"\u003eJuniper Berries\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"pc-notes__column\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"pc-notes__label\"\u003eBase\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cul class=\"pc-notes__list\"\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-cashmeran\"\u003eCashmeran\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-vanilla\"\u003eVanilla\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/note-peru-balsam\"\u003ePeru Balsam\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003chr class=\"pc-description-rule\"\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"pc-description-heading\"\u003eWhen to Wear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade for cool autumn evenings, fireside gatherings, and intimate dinners where warmth should be felt in every sense.
