Kilian Fievre Verte

Mostly dry and warm, like cedar shavings or the inside of a wooden drawer. Underneath that, gentle warm spice, rounder and quieter than cinnamon.

It opens on wormwood and cypress, moves through licorice and violet leaf, and settles on patchouli, vanilla and vetiver.

• cypress: dry evergreen wood, resinous and a little sharp
• licorice: sweet aniseed, cooling and slightly salty

It lasts well and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
