Nose
Dense and mellow, with notes of fruit, honey, beeswax, sweet apples, lemon, mango, marshmallows, and a delicate floral nuance. It can also present waxy, biscuity, and pastry notes with hints of vanilla and nuts.
Palate
Immediate and direct, with a thick, oily mouthfeel. Flavors include sweet, spicy honey, cinnamon, baking spices, ginger, pepper, orange oil, coconut, very ripe apples, marzipan, and apple pastry. It is silky and buttery with biscuity sweetness.
Finish
Medium long, delicate and easy, lingering with pastry notes, a touch of burnt sugar, vanilla ice cream, marshmallow fluff, and a slight wood influence. It can also have a warm, fruity tingle.
