The opening features the crisp/tart of an English Pippin apple, starting fresh and gentling into a caramelized sweetness that reminds you of aged cognac. As the fragrance unfolds, pepper adds some spice to the top note. The base notes of cedar and incense wrap the fragrance in a hint of wood smoke that’s ideal for cozy evenings with someone special. The scent is restrained but never loses that distinctive, boozy appeal.
