Nose
lemons and bitter almonds, leading to sweeter citrus (mandarin) and a fatty element (wax candles, lightly scented). Then beautiful varnish and hints of sourdough. White cedar oil.
Palate
quite punchy, revolving around bittersweet freshness, reminding me of a gin & tonic with slices of grapefruit. Juniper berries, white pepper, lemon peels. Some oily notes again. Then subtle grainy sweetness in the background, with hints of melon, vanilla and some solventy notes.
Finish
medium length, sweet and spicy, with nice fruits (banana perhaps) coming forward.
