A boozy gourmand — green apple, hazelnut nougat, black plum, cinnamon, vanilla bourbon, oak barrel, sandalwood, amber.
A crisp green apple opening cuts through the darkness first, quickly enveloped by the velvet warmth of hazelnut nougat — rich, toasted and instantly indulgent. Jammy black plum and cinnamon simmer through the heart like a slow reduction, adding a deep, spiced fruitiness that builds with each hour. Vanilla bourbon bleeds into charred oak barrels in the base, underpinned by smooth sandalwood and warm amber — equal parts confectionery and vintage spirit. A liquid indulgence that belongs in a candlelit room on a long autumn evening.
