    This is sweeter than you might expect from the name. The magnolia and tonka give it a softness that plays against the oud base. If you want pure darkness, look elsewhere.Pardon
    Sweet enough to pull you in. Dry enough to stay. The honey and beeswax make it edible, but the vetiver and patchouli base keeps it from being just another gourmand.Serenade
