By the editors · 2 min readRum and plum create an opening that is boozy, fruity, and slightly syrupy, with a rich and inviting sweetness. Incense and benzoin quickly introduce a smoky, balsamic heart that contrasts with the fruity top, adding depth and resinous warmth. Amber bridges the heart and base, contributing a smooth, vanillic richness that enhances the overall sweetness. Sandalwood and tonka bean in the dry-down provide a creamy, woody foundation that grounds the composition without overpowering it. Vanilla emerges fully in the base, rounding out the scent with a soft, comforting finish. Projection is moderate and longevity is good, making this suitable for evening occasions in cooler weather.
