Tasting note: A mentholated top note is present on the vaguely exotic nose of dried peach, apple compote, spice and pretty floral wisps. The seductive and relatively powerful flavors are, somewhat curiously, not quite as dense as those of its 2020 counterpart, but the intensity really builds as the impressively long finish sits on the palate. This slightly warm effort isn't refined but even without excellent mid-palate concentration, it is imposing.
