Houbigant Tonka Sublime is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025. Tonka Sublime opens with Neroli, Star Anise, Almond, and Plum, settles into a heart of Davana, Jasmine, and Tonka Bean, and dries down to a base of Amber and Sandalwood. Houbigant's Tonka Sublime carries a Favourite verdict, an amber-led wear.

This is a decent, sweet tonka-forward scent that unfortunately suffers from weak performance, with some finding it a bit too masculine or dusty. Not a 'grand projection monster' by any stretch, making it a safe pick for quieter moments.

About

Opening with a sweet, nutty burst of almond and star anise, Tonka Sublime quickly settles into a creamy heart where the namesake tonka bean reigns supreme. Hints of jasmine and the jammy sweetness of plum weave through, before a warmer, woody base of sandalwood and amber gently guides it to a close. There's a subtle powderiness throughout, adding a touch of sophisticated comfort.
