This is an immaculate bottle. Fresh and intense it could be 30 years old instead of as old as me! Dark plum, black pepper, iodine, deep k minerality. This is spectacular. Long and pure and delicious.

Tasted blind, from two combined bottles. Scarlet reddish tawny color. Doesn’t look overly old. Unique nose. Notes of cranberries and figs, cola, violets and some open field brush. Rich, expands in the mouth. Amazing perfume. I had no idea what this was but someone else deduced and nailed it with their guess. I can see why this producer/bottle is in high collector demand.

Tasted this three weeks ago — can't stop thinking about it. The best Vega I've ever had. Still vibrant. Slight fruit development. So much length. 🇪🇸 🙌🏻
