Monday, January 22, 2024 - Drank from a 375ml split. A purplish red between pomegranate and the color of freshly polished ruby jewels in a swiss watch. It took 4 hours of decanting for this to finally reveal itself. Incredible graphite smells, leading to cherry cola, beautiful florals, red and purple flowers. There's a silkiness and smoothness that almost tastes lightly sweet, a playful cotton candy, rose water. A long finish that turns towards two simultaneous flavors of juicy orange and zest and deep mint chocolate. Faint, but clearly there. Some spice, pepper, reminds me of a very light garam masala. Incense, jasmine
