I love the basic idea (chestnut-wood-incense) of the combination. However, I find the smoke a bit too overpowering for my taste.

Too bad about the smoke, I thought it was great too.

Yes, the smoke really ruined the (otherwise lovely) scent for me.

I love chestnut too... But if it gets too smoky...

I thought so too at first, but I think they’ve referred to the chestnut here as a praline in a roundabout way. But who knows?

I don't like strong smoke either...

I found it simply unharmonious.

I probably wouldn't have as many issues with that.

I’d be more worried that it might be too sweet and gourmand for me, but definitely worth a try.

It's not sweet at all.

If it smells burnt like a campfire, I don't like that either. I really like resinous incense before it hits the embers.

Then this one might be for you; it's definitely not about campfire vibes.

Too bad, sounds like a miss.

It's really hard to say. For me, yes, but others probably find the smoky scent really nice. That’s life 🤷‍♂️

For me, the type of smoke would be crucial, but it’s still going on my wish list.

I'm not the ultimate authority on this. Those who are less "sensitive to smoke" might be happy with this.

It would depend. But the brand is too ambitious for my budget.

Regarding the smoke or its intensity? Yes, they don't just give away their scents. Everything has to be just right.

Sounds very interesting, and depending on how one handles smoke, even better - is the smoke presented individually for you or in the context of the composition?

It's there for me almost from the beginning to the end, so it actually fits the picture. I'm just not really a fan of incense 😉
