The house

More from Sora Dora

Sora Dora is a French niche house, set up in 2021, that makes rich, dessert-leaning extraits. Almond, caramel, vanilla and heliotrope run through most of the range, with baked apple, cacao and cinnamon adding warmth. Jany, from 2023, is the pastry-shop one, soft with baked apple and spice. Mallow is powdery and sweet, made for anyone who likes almond and musk. Mandorle Extrait is the darker almond, deepened with cacao. For something brighter, Gladiator Extrait swaps sugar for grapefruit and fresh herbs. Margaux Le Paih Guerin and Amelie Bourgeois are among its perfumers.
