The heart deepens with incense and benzoin, the incense lending a clean smoky resin and the benzoin a sticky balsamic warmth. The cinnamon and saffron persist, giving the middle a leather-and-spice character.
The drydown is amber, cedar, and musk, the amber radiating a golden balsamic glow and the cedar adding dry woodiness. The overall reading is a spicy-resinous oriental with a smoky leather underside and a lime-galbanum twist that gives it freshness.
