A deeply sensual, unisex gourmand with a gilded core of rum, toasted coconut, praline, and vanilla, balanced by subtle woody and amber notes. The opening unfolds with sweetly boozy bergamot, honeyed coffee, and sea salt, evoking a warm, tropical moonlit beach scene. As it dries, the fragrance drifts into a complex, creamy woodiness with sandalwood, musk, and a dry, smoky tone—suggested but not overpowering oud—that lingers into the night. The performance is strong and long-lasting for moderate longevity, with a moderately projecting trail that settles into a skin-scent after a few hours. Despite being marketed as unisex, some find it leans more masculine due to its woody, musky dry-down, while others appreciate its soft, powdery sweetness. It’s ideal for evening wear in colder months, with a quietly seductive, sophisticated aura that works well as a date or event scent. The overall impression is of seamless blending, with many noting its surprising longevity and gourmand warmth despite the dry-down’s introductory notes beyond the expected sweet core.
