Let me start with a disclaimer, this bottle sold me. Beautifully simple; every detail of the labeling and bottle done right. The hype also sold me. The coffee grain also sold me. Now to the actual contents of the bottle- Powerful nose- vanilla, light fruit, and liquorish there. So far not for me, but I can see why people like it. For the nose giving so much, the palate brings the notes together succinctly. The vanilla stands out there and the palate is subtle in a good way. Long spicy finish does it for me and brings it all together to make it worth it at the end.
