Nose: A huge floral opening is reminiscent of an expensive perfume, with tuberose, jasmine and orange blossom, before it becomes darker and develops waxy leather and a suggestion of clary sage.
Palate: In a syrupy delivery there’s luscious orange sherbet, fresh coriander and subtle juniper. Some candied liquorice, a little incense smoke and prickles of a herbaceous, warm spice form the backdrop.
Finish: Fresh and long, the floral notes of the nose persist among waning spices.
Overall: Constantly intriguing, there’s more depth and darkness than the floral beginnings suggest, a welcome variety of flavours develop with time.
