ABOUT

Bonbon is a gourmand, candy-like accord built around warm, caramelized sugar and soft toffee textures, often enriched with creamy vanilla, praline or marshmallow and occasional candied-fruit highlights to create an indulgently sweet, chewy character. In perfumery it’s used to provide a playful, edible sweetness and plush longevity—typically placed in the heart or base and paired with florals, woods or musks, and often balanced with citrus, bitter or salty accents to prevent cloying.
