Real talk
It's the fir balsam that does it. Not the red currant, not the amber, the balsam. Most fragrances forget the base notes exist. This one builds a whole cabin in them.Type 2: Red Currant & Balsam
The sweetness here is real, plum and vanilla aren't hiding. But tobacco keeps it honest, stops it from becoming a dessert. Wear it the way you'd order a glass of something good: because you want to.Tobacco & Tonka Bean
