It's a smoked prune. It smells exactly like a smoked prune - a common ingredient in Ukrainian cuisine. I'm a bit intrigued as to why this particular food is made into perfume, but oh well, who am I to judge.
It's a linear scent, although it sports some fancy notes like tobacco and leather. That gives some unusual richness to a fruit. It's bitter, tart, very smoky, and somewhat unusual. Smoked prune is often used in sweets, but by itself, it's not sweet at all and not a juicy type of fruity. It's a celebration of a fruit dried and smoked, but still delicious and healthy.
It's quite long-lasting, as far as this brand's perfumes go. So, if you're into very unusual savoury smoky gourmands, it can work for you. I'm not big into a dries fruit scene, so sadly, it's a bit too astringent for me.
