Le Cirque Maison des Animaux 2024

This is a sweet, woody gourmand that skews "classically masculine". On me, it opens with a dry tobacco (not smoky), with chocolatey notes through the middle, and dries into brown sugar and vanilla scent. It had moderate-strong sillage and lasted 4+ hours. I didn't get much floral or coffee. This would be an excellent date or going out scent, but probably too overwhelming for the office. One of my friends had a penchant for hand-rolling cigarettes and he kept the materials in an old cigar box. This feels like a memory of sharing a cigarette outside of a basement concert- perfectly sweet but not too sweet.
