ABOUT

Panna cotta in perfumery is a warm, silky milk accord: creamy cooked cream with soft vanilla and powdered-sugar sweetness, sometimes edged with faint almond or coconut notes, evoking the smooth, set Italian dessert and a cozy, edible warmth. It is used as a gourmand heart or base to add velvety roundness and creamy sweetness, often paired with vanilla, tonka, benzoin, caramel or soft woods to mellow florals or spices and create comforting, non-cloying edible accords.
