The delightfully sweet, fluffy confectionary is made with two simple ingredients: air and colored sugar. Sugar is heated until it melts, and then spun into fine strands before being served on a stick or in a cone.

Its fresh start of bergamot, mandarin and passion fruit, facilitates this new note which develops on a base of patchouli, caramel and vanilla, extremely identified.
