The heart turns rounder. Ginger keeps a little fizz going while black pepper adds a dry crackle, and almond brings in a soft marzipan-leaning sweetness alongside a discreet jasmine. It reads as a polished men's-counter spice composition, never gourmand but flirting with that direction.
The base settles on amber and vanilla over cedar and musk: smooth, warm and powdery, with the almond echoing through the drydown. The structure is a familiar woody-spicy template executed cleanly, comfortable through cooler weather and equally fine for office or evening wear.
