Nose

A mellow and fragrant nose overall. Briefly suggesting fresh-hewn wood, the sweet top notes are both fruity and floral; a fresh fruit salad with juicy peaches, eaten among freesias and roses. They are backed by more fragant notes of scented cream on a base of freshly laundered linen, with a hint of sandalwood.

Of medium length and elegantly drying, with a lovely sweet white pepper warmth and a lingering fragrant aftertaste.
