Jul 7th, 2015On the scent, strong banana sweetness with coconut and sugar cane, but also a distinct funky note that is not consonant with all that sweetness. The taste is as if rice pudding were left in a wood container long enough to pick up woodsy notes. Not so funky as to be offensive or off-putting, not so sweet and gentle as to be cloying and boring. Just right in the balance of the two to remain interesting and keep me coming back to it.
