Pará - Amber and Tonka Bean There’s an ancient myth in Pará, Brazil that Tonka beans have magical properties. To unlock them, it’s said you must squeeze a Tonka bean in one hand and a snake in the other before throwing the bean in a river and wrapping the snake around a Tonka bean tree. We’ve tapped into the Tonka bean’s magic by combining it with warm Amber to create this rich fragrance with notes of sweet vanilla, caramel and cinnamon spice.
