Your Powers
Thirteen materials make Tous Your Powers Eau de Toilette the busiest thing the jeweller sells, and the 2022 release is sweeter and more tropical than anything else in its range. The opening is a fruit bowl and makes no apology for it. Mandarin orange and orange give it juice and zest, pear adds a cool watery crispness, and strawberry brings a soft, slightly jammy sweetness that tells you immediately where the whole composition is heading. It is cheerful and a little loud at first.
The middle is unusual in that it mixes flowers and fruit without choosing between them. Rose supplies petal weight, jasmine a full floral weight, raspberry a tart brightness that keeps the sweetness in check, and sandalwood turns up early, soft and dry, acting as a bridge into the base rather than waiting for it. That early sandalwood is the cleverest thing here. The finish is warm and creamy. Coconut is the dry desiccated sort rather than suntan oil, vanilla rounds it, amber adds a low resinous glow, musk keeps it clean, and patchouli brings earth and a touch of bitterness so the sweetness has something to push against. It lasts well and it stays sweet to the end. The toilette strength keeps it moderate, which a scent this rich needs, and two or three sprays is the right dose. It suits summer evenings, holidays and younger wearers, and anyone who dislikes sweet fragrance should walk straight past it rather than hope the drydown saves them.
Tous is a Spanish jeweller with its roots in watchmaking, and the bear it uses as an emblem appears on much of what it sells. Fragrance arrived among the categories it added from 2000.
