Overall
Score
7.7
Nose
Creamy, with a caramel custard note emerging first, alongside some fondant icing, a touch of menthol and some slightly brown banana. Water helps this along with some musky, pollen filled white lily.
Palate
Wheaty and malty, with cream crackers, into a touch of dry spice and some gentle vanilla. It feels youthful, but doesn't have a biting spiritiness.
Finish
Light and creamy, with a touch of the vanilla sweetness lingering on the back palate.
Comment
Doesn't sing out as loudly as one would hope for - it's certainly pleasant, but not hugely exciting.
