Crazy bottle, safe scent. This is a quick, first impression review: Warm, dry, spicy - not as fresh as described. I find most of the citrus within the peel, dried, with just a little of the fruit so it is never sharp. Patchouli is not dominant - nor does it have that distinctive dampness. Here the patch is dry & placed far behind the warm, dusty cinnamon that is the heartbeat of this frag. As you wear it the red berries begin to appear - not fruity per se, but I am very much reminded of the red berry notes in good quality, well-brewed natural coffees & fine dark chocolates. Although coffee & black chocolate are not listed, there is a feel of them there within this perfume. As it develops it becomes more vanilla resinous & warm. So far I am enjoying this perfume with its slightly resinous, dusty cinnamon vibe. It isn’t an in your face frag but is well-crafted & distinct.
