The
nose
evolves in a pure, distinguished maner. We discover its soft, suave
nature as fresh citrus notes give way to aromas of vanilla, menthol
and fern.
|
The
taste
illustrates its class, richness, fullness, finesse and mellowness
evelving in a resolutely mineral universe that only time will
check. The extremely long finish leaves us with the impression
of having experienced a wonderful moment of happiness.
