    Sweet, but not simple. The honey-rum opening leans gourmand, then cinnamon and labdanum pull it back toward resinous and adult. It earns its name. This is amber that remembers it started as a sunset.Perfect Amber
    La Capitale does not whisper. Strawberry and caramel open sweet, leather and saffron take over, then benzoin, bourbon vanilla, and oud. It's for someone who wants to be noticed.La Capitale
