Nose
Fragrant honeyed sweetness intertwined with dried apricots, ripe plums, sandalwood, and delicate Mizunara incense, lifted by hints of dark chocolate and spiced oak. Sweet, caramalised nuts, some lemon acidity, blackcurrants and pears with vanilla, dark toffee and rich sherry spice. Refined and elegant with top notes of kumquat and jasmine, and a hint of soothing Japanese incense.
Palate
Velvety and rich, offering notes of black cherry, raisin, caramelized nuts, and creamy vanilla. Layers of sherry-soaked fruits and gentle wood spice unfold with perfect harmony. Oak, dark cherry and sweet caramel notes, buttery with a wisp of smoke and some wood spice. Subtly sweet floral flavor and parfum as the harmony elongates to introduce spiced Japanese sandalwood and agarwood notes.
Finish
Long, graceful, and beautifully textured, with lingering notes of sweet oak, incense, and soft dried fruit. Long, with a hint of smoke. Long and deep with undernotes of spiced Mizunara woodiness.
