Ducalis is a woody-floral perfume with the emphasis firmly
on the woody aspect. It opens with a powdery, pink rose accord that quickly
submits to an overdose of Timberol/Norlimbanol (vel.sim.), giving the fragrance a dessicated, scorched timber
character with animalic-steroidal overtones. As Firmenich (who manufacture
Norlimbanol) advise, the material requires ‘careful blending and dosing’ to
avoid it running roughshod over the entire composition which here also includes
a fresh, laundry-powder citation.
