What it smells like

The Scent File profile

Opens with a boozy, almost edible cognac that smells like the inside of a barrel room — sweet, woody, and slightly sharp. The praline and cinnamon move in quickly, softening the alcohol edge into something closer to warm dessert than cocktail. By the heart it's unmistakably gourmand, rich and enveloping without tipping into cloying. The cedar and oak keep things grounded through the dry-down, lending a dry, slightly smoky backbone beneath the tonka's creamy vanilla finish. Projection is moderate; sillage is intimate and long-lasting — made for cold evenings, date nights, or anyone who wants to smell like expensive comfort.
