Hey guys, in today's video, I will be sharing my favorite sexy Tonka Bean fragrances in my collection.
Tonka bean, the seed of an Amazonian tree, is one of the widely used notes in the perfumery today. Tonka bean has a sweet/spicy fragrance that is reminiscent of vanilla and almond. In oriental fragrances, tonka bean displays a honeyed facet with fruity undertones.

Sweetly scented of toasted almonds, amarena cherries, sun-warmed hay and vanilla custard, tonka is one of the most luscious and seductive in a perfumer’s palette. Ever heard of the good 'ole Tonka bean? Its one of the most common and important perfume ingredients today.
The tonka bean tree (Dipterix odorata), a legume also known as cumaru, may grow to be 1,000 years old in the tropical rainforests Central and South America where the rose-colored flowers produce a fruit that bears a precious single bean over an inch in length.
These trees rise over the dense tropical canopy as they yearn for sun where the fruits ripen in the summer. During this time, the tonka beans are gathered freshly fallen by indigenous locals of the tropical rainforest while older pods can be picked up through winter into early spring. The production of the “love bean” can vary widely, and exceptionally large volumes are produced every three to four years. These variating harvests are handled differently by the rural Amazonian families that depend on the crop, with gender roles taking turns, depending on the harvest.
In low yield years, women control the harvest and use the earnings to buy basic resources, such as food to support the family. In high yield years, men control the income and will spend the surplus cash on higher cost goods such as motorcycles and chainsaws. After harvesting, the beans are cured by soaking in alcohol, usually rum, for roughly 24 hours and then removed for drying.
Once dry, white crystals of coumarin form a frosting on the skin of each tonka bean. The beans are then shipped off for fragrance extraction.
The tonka bean experienced in perfume derives of tonka absolute. The way it’s obtained is from solvent extraction of the tonka beans and the solid, crystalline substance must be diluted to work with.
So what does Tonka bean smell like? I can only describe the natural perfection of tonka absolute as vanilla-like, spicy/balsamic, very sweet and rich, but also I get hints of caramel.
It’s not 1 for 1 a vanilla note, whilst it can be used to deepen, complete, or enhance vanilla notes. To me, tonka has a slightly less "foodie" accord than vanilla, yet it was used in edible recipes for hundreds of years.
I say this because vanilla notes in perfumes are normally sugary to the point where they're impossible to separate from their gourmand associations. But tonka (overall) has a slightly more neutral tone, more like a cinnamon spice or nutty aroma compared to the rich, creamy sweetness of vanilla.
