It opens with liquor, pear and davana, where the pear and the liquor note give a fruity sweetness. In the heart, dried fruits, spicy notes and patchouli add a spiced, earthy shade to that sweetness. The base is led by vanilla, tonka bean and amber notes, settling into a creamy, resinous and slightly smoky warmth with a synthetic sheen running through it.
