Oud Caledonia

review from my wife Oud Caledonia by Fueguia 1833. It kicks off with a bitter chocolate note, rich in cocoa butter (fatty and shiny), accompanied by a syrup of dark medicinal herbs. Then, the gourmet tone transforms into something animalistic! It seems like the chocolate was just an illusion, and in reality, it's the damp back of a dark bay stallion. He gallops along the coast, with fine sea spray settling on his sides, sand, and an old, somewhere shiny, saddle, worn in places, made from the hide of a reddish bull barrel. The steed brings with him in his mane the scent of tropical fruits and wildflowers, blending into a magnificent cocktail that settles on the taste receptors. Hence, there's a constant desire to embrace the horse by the neck, i.e., bury your nose in the crook of your elbow. Really enjoyed it! Now, it's intriguing to see how Oud Caledonia unfolds in warmer weather. And how beautifully it sits on my "cool" skin!
