This points to a richer style, with dark chocolate and brown sugar giving the palate weight, while candied citrus and ripe pear keep it from feeling too heavy. The lingering dried fruits and baking spices sound like a satisfying continuation, with a mild bitterness and woody touch adding a firmer edge. There’s also a lighter lift from white flowers and the fresh fruit on the nose.

The citrus and pear against darker chocolate and dried-fruit notes sound like an appealing contrast. The SGD 720 sale reference is a sizeable ask, so that character would need to be the draw; the mildly bitter, woody finish may not suit everyone.

The candied citrus and dark chocolate make a clear sweet-bitter contrast, while the lingering dried fruits and baking spices give the finish a warmer, spiced direction.
