It included two flagship ingredients, cistus labdanum, with its warm, resinous, animal facets, and vanillin, a new, sweet aromatic compound, which is the primary component of vanilla. Since then, the combination of these two warm and persistent notes has been considered to form the amber accord, generally enriched with tonka bean, coumarin and resins such as benzoin or incense, which are all base notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"notes-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"second-title\"\u003eBenzoin\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"notes-body notes-body-truncate\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe resin of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eStyrax tonkinsesis\u003c\/i\u003e, endemic to Southeast Asia, is obtained by notching the trunk of its tree to make it \"cry\".
