About

Chicago High bursts open with a boozy, sparkling accord of champagne and sweet pineapple, swiftly leading into a rich heart of sticky honey and smoky tobacco. The dry down is deep and complex, settling into a dark, animalic leather tempered by warm amber and an earthy hint of patchouli. It's an intoxicating journey from bright effervescence to a profoundly sensual base.
