Even to the thought of coconut
If I had pushed the sibling fragrance 'Amalia Gourmand' into another corner regardless of its name, 'Quilombo', on the other hand, allows no doubt: It is now really a gourmand: caramel, quickly no longer creamy, but rather dusty, a little burnt, after a quarter of an hour even more than "a little" burnt. Carners 'Palo Santo' says hello.
But the vanilla also seems to be fathoming its smoky ability at the same time. In any case, the coke doesn't smell pale as if it had been left on the stove too long by mistake, it is rather aromatic and round. I suppose we experience as side aromas here simply the skill of real vanilla with its various facets, which I was allowed to get to know only partly before. Today there are floral aspects, freshness like from plant sap, tough caramel, some chocolaty sprinkles, fruity approaches up to the thought of coconut(!) as well as a breath of wood. Everything of course only touched, never quite reached. Strong.
Late in the morning the part scraped off the bottom of the pot increases again and the increasingly sugary sweetness strains the patience a bit. However, 'Quilombo' gets at least in this respect tightly the curve and the sweetness retreats in the course of the afternoon, while the fragrance gradually, without significant further change, passes. Trial of patience no. 2: For hours burned, gently sweet milk... burned, gently sweet milk... burned, gently sweet milk.... This unchangeability throughout the afternoon and into the evening unfortunately annoys us again in the long run.
Conclusion: I leave it - at most - at the first third.
I'd like to thank the robins for rehearsing.
