Nosing: Overwhelming sweetness, mostly honey and vanilla, slight floral notes.

Taste: Smooth and saturating woodiness with lingering cloves and chocolate/pear notes.

Finish: Long with mild spice and soft fruits paired with sweetness (like burnt caramel)

Comment: Quite enjoyable! As soon as this bottle is done, I'm restocking.
