Strange, smokey dry-down
This had a beautiful minty-chocolate opening: powdery, chilly, and sweet. But the notes quickly moved into the middle, where the opening notes disappeared and a toasted marshmallow solinote sat quietly.
Dry-down, which came within just a few minutes, was a really burnt marshmallow + firewood. It reminded me of a sweeter, more smokey, and synthetic version of Replica - By the Fireplace . Very headache-inducing for me.
A better alternative for a minty-chocolate mist: Christmas Cocoa & Mint . That one keeps the chocolate and mint notes - and doesn't have anything woody, smokey, burnt, or synthetic.
