Deep Dark Chocolate & Bitter Orange

Hour 1-2: I definitely get the orange, and dark chocolate. To me, it's more of a deep dark low-sugar chocolate than straight cocoa powder, and the orange is medium-bitter, not too bright or citrusy but adds some depth and mild interest. It is somewhat powdery but not overly so. It does have a little bit of creaminess from the chocolate but not a bunch. This is chocolate that only a mature, refined adult would eat, and they are not eating it for the sugar but because it pairs well with a certain wine, or something like that. It's deep and moderately rich, but not rich as in the milky/fatty way. Not sure if I love the chocolate on me (yet). 3.5/5 stars on me.
Base notes: Dried down to a softer chocolate with barely-detectable chocolate, and I think some vanilla too. Much softer and more blended in the drydown, not so intense or dark.
