Tasting notes：

Nose: Rich and smooth. The aromatic palette is pastry-like (flan, crème brûlée, almond) and also possesses a pleasant fruity freshness (apple, pear). Aromas of cardamom, sandalwood, and tobacco (Cuban cigar) add depth and a touch of nobility to the olfactory profile.

Palate: Creamy and lively. Menthol and citrus dominate, offering a wonderfully fresh and tangy gustatory experience. Gaining further vibrancy, it develops flavors of orange, ginger, and pepper. Gradually, the finish evolves into a delightful floral dimension (lavender, poppy).

Finish: Long and velvety. Initially, notes of tobacco, banana, and bay leaf, enveloped in a fine layer of salted caramel, dominate a flavor profile that becomes increasingly indulgent (Paris-Brest pastry). Radiant, the aftertaste is enlivened by zesty hints of yellow lemon peel.
