About

X Twist Liquorice opens with a pungent, woody myrrh, immediately deepened by a warm, almost medicinal liquorice that has hints of anise. Spicy nuances of cardamom and allspice weave through, lending an aromatic complexity without being overtly sweet. The dry down introduces a creamy orris butter, smoothing out the edges and leaving a refined, subtly powdery trail. The maple is more of a background player here, offering a hint of sweet warmth rather than a syrupy presence, blending with the woody undertones for a truly intoxicating and sophisticated blend.
