About

Opens with a punch of juicy apple and tart rhubarb, lifted by a touch of saffron. This quickly deepens into a sweet, powdery violet heart, before settling into a gourmand base. Rich caramel and creamy vanilla entwine with warm tonka bean, underpinned by a smooth, woody structure that’s a far cry from a traditional barnyard oud. It's dense, sweet, and undeniably memorable.
