N: Sweet fruit candy, shaving cream, oak, lumber yard, hint of library dust, caramel corn, candy corn, sawdust, hint of barnyard, funky, even a bit yeasty, but big sweet notes balance against that.
P: Chocolate orange, lightly charred oak, touch of smoke, caramel, pencil shavings, frothy soap, light roast coffee, some cinnamon, some baking spice.
F: Medium hot with cinnamon, Christmas baking spice, oak, caramel, vanilla.
This lovely. I enjoyed it. The funk is interesting, although I think more subdued than I imply above. It's well balanced. It's also grotesquely overpriced. But what isn't these days. (Don't answer that.)
