    At first, the fruits are potent, with a dense background of tobacco and raspberry giving it an ambiguous vibe. But the dry down is the best part: the warmth of tobacco, a subtle cedar, and the sweetness of tonka bean and patchouli as the fruits soften. It fits perfectly as a spiced oriental; its bold opening makes it ideal for young people looking for something different. Unfortunately, it seems discontinued (I have a miniature), but its longevity and sillage are good, especially for winter and night.
