Opening is a dose of crisp juniper. Like a blast of crisp air flying through a chilly forest. Woody and highly aromatic. Masculine. Dirty and clean at the same time.

The mid starts to reveal the smoke. It’s dense and shrouding. The Vetiver has to be the feature with the smoke here to give it that width.

The base is where that resinous ambery Oud is lying in embers. It’s the wick at the base of the candle. It’s there but not the star of the show. It’s very pleasing and far from animalic or unpleasant.

This was a pleasant surprise.
