About

Don't Look Back kicks off with a fresh, herbal hit of lavender and coriander, brightened by a zesty mandarin. This invigorating start leads into a boozy heart of gin and vodka, softened by a subtle hint of tobacco. The dry down is a comforting blend of woody cedar, earthy oakmoss, and a creamy vanilla, adding a touch of smooth sweetness without veering into gourmand territory.
