Pi

Mostly sweet and creamy, like vanilla pod or custard. Underneath that, sweet resinous warmth, soft and slightly powdery.

It opens on mandarin orange, tarragon and rosemary, moves through anise, neroli and geranium, and settles on vanilla, almond and tonka bean.

• mandarin orange: sweet, soft citrus. Gentler and less biting than lemon
• tarragon: green aniseed herb, sharp and a little liquorice-like

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.
