Ambergris showcase
Apparently Jimmy Bodin did not even bother to disguise the off-putting opening smell with some pretty top notes, knowing the drydown will have that wonderful blooming effect of natural ambergris. This 'patina' - as Antoine Lie rightfully calls it - is well worth the wait. It is framed by orris, tobacco and a soft cocoa powder. All very subtly dosed, really letting the ambergris work with the skin. Low in sillage but high in complexity and absolutely thrilling.
