The perfume is exquisite: fresh, green and creamy hazelnut unites with grapefruit peel, boxwood, lime zest and subtle smoke. The palate takes all these flavours up in a big sweep of wonderfully sinuous smoothness, always absolutely accentuated by green citrus freshness. Passion fruit, moss and green pepper overtones shimmer aromatically. What a triumph. Simply outstanding with great ageing and evolution potential. So pure and so long.
