Nose- Floral perfume; rosewater; butterscotch; aged oak; cinnamon; caramel; rich vanilla; dusting of nutmeg; milk chocolate
Palate- rich, aged oak; cherries; baking spices; vanilla bean; dark chocolate; espresso beans
Finish- Medium, rich finish; milk chocolate; espresso; aged, dusty oak
What a nose. Beautiful, balanced, and floral. Just the right amount of oak and baking spices. The palate is enjoyable, but really nothing insane. The oak shines through, as well as vanilla, cherries and more baking spices. The finish unfortunately is not as long as id hoped for, but is full of rich milk chocolate and dusty oak. I would absolutely buy a bottle at MSRP, but for $2000? Absolutely not.

I've heard that before, but I find it really interesting that this would be so floral at 23 years.
