Nose
A pleasant mix of sweet breakfast cereals with honey, oranges and light herbal notes, minty freshness, vanilla cake and apple pie, light sherry notes such as figs and golden raisins, a hint of OBE (shoe polish and cardboard) and latte.

Finish
Medium length, mostly on grains and old cardboard notes, apple peelings and marmalade.
