nose: perfume, rubbing alcohol, vanilla, flowers palate: Woody, almost menthol, finish: short and slightly astringent not unpleasant, but flat and generally uninteresting
Lots of legs. No identifiable aroma, burn, caramel and oak, somewhat smooth
Picking up the earthy woody quality, made me think of peat a little bit
licorice at the front with a nice smooth finish not great but not bad
Big butterscotch notes. Light spice finish.
