By the editors · 2 min readFire at Will opens on a direct, dense vanilla — not a soft, airy vanilla but something closer to raw extract, thick and slightly boozy. Brown sugar arrives quickly, reinforcing the sweetness without turning it candied.
In the heart, the two meet fully: vanilla and brown sugar stack into something that reads as caramel-adjacent, warm and rounded. There is no sharpness here, no interruption.
The base settles the composition. Vetiver pulls a dry, earthy thread underneath, keeping the sweetness from collapsing into confection. Amber adds resinous depth and musk softens the edges. The result is a dense, close-wearing gourmand that leans warm and balsamic without crossing into bakery.
