Let's Taste It :
Very floral, this nose. With camphor and a slight steam. Then the exotic fruits appear. Mango, lychees. A touch of menthol. Caramel. Eucalyptus. Vaporub. Tyre, rubber, tar. Finally, sea breeze. Salt, seaweed, foam. All of this comes in stages. On the palate, flowers. Roses, cherry blossom. Vanilla and caramel. Finally, the rising pepper. Cloves. Spices in the finish, vanilla bean, very long. Camphor, menthol and coconut mingle with caramel. A sensation of freshness.
 
In Short, 
It's a success story. It has a highly original and rather complex profile at an attractive price. Fruity, but also with an atypical character that makes it irreplaceable. A classic. 
Score : 86
