Blossom Perfumery 484 Myrrh & Tonka is an Eau de Parfum. 484 Myrrh & Tonka opens with Lavender, settles into a heart of Myrrh, and dries down to a base of Vanilla, Tonka Bean, and Almond. Blossom Perfumery's 484 Myrrh & Tonka carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

484 recreates Serge Lutens' Myrrhe et Tonka's gourmand almond-tonka core, but trades the original's resinous, smoky myrrh depth for a sweeter, thinner amber-vanilla base that fades noticeably sooner.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

484 chases the almond-and-tonka gourmand signature that defines Serge Lutens' cult classic Myrrhe et Tonka. The lavender opening is close enough to pass, and the tonka-vanilla-almond base captures the comforting, marzipan-like sweetness people love the original for. What's missing is the smoky, resinous myrrh backbone that gives Lutens' version its slightly bitter, incense-tinged complexity - 484 stays uniformly sweet where the original darkens and deepens over time. Longevity is moderate rather than the original's famous staying power, and projection tapers off within a few hours. As a cheap way to sample the almond-tonka mood before committing to the niche price tag, it does its job.
