"... There sure is lots of citrus, passion fruit etc., but there's also lots of beeswax, sea air, flowers and plants, accompanied by all their sub-aromas. Propolis, tar, shoe polish, apricot jam, ripe mirabelle, pineapple liqueur, dried figs. Then it goes back to some 'resinous' aromas, like old turpentine... This is just endless. What a beauty!"
