Overall
Score
7.8
Nose
Slighty off the bat, with a little ripe orchard fruit, hints of American bubble gum and some drying woody tones.
Palate
Hot, with some roasted coffee/cocoa bean notes, leading into a touch of leather/wood and a discreet perfumed smoke note hidden away. Like a secret door in the back of a wardrobe.
Finish
The lingering toasted notes are dominant here, with a touch of spice developing alongside a decent drying oakiness.
Comment
Nothing wrong with this, perhaps a little dry for my tastes, but has some interesting top notes to explore.
