An exotic zebra-striped release of green South American mate tea blended with an absolute spice bazaar of nutmeg, cinnamon, and guaiac wood.
The dryness of the spices means it shines incredibly well in hot, arid plains, but winter is when its cozy woodiness really warms up.
More adventurous, rugged, and woody than Cartier Declaration, which is heavily reliant on a cumin-citrus note.
The loud, dry spicy-woody complexity is definitely not blind-buy safe for those used to clean, aquatic modern barbershop scents.
