    What does The World smell like?

    The World by Esscentual Alchemy is a fragrance that opens with bright top notes, transitions into a heart of Tolu Balsam, Tonka Bean, and Hay, and settles into a base of Hay, Lavender, and Balsam (Peru). Expect 2-4 hours longevity and moderate sillage. Best suited for fall and winter. Rated 3.5/5, loved by the community, 3 votes.

    What others think.

    The World turns dry hay and lavender into something warm and quietly sweet. Does that field-and-resin contrast pull you in, or do you prefer a brighter opening?
