In the bottle, all the nutmeg. Wet: still a lot of nutmeg with something floral and warm behind it. Dry: The nutmeg calms down to add that warm spicy note to the amber with the rose as a dark floral blended in. The mix is blended really well, and the throw has me sitting in this nice cloud of spicy, floral amber. I think I'll need more of this.

I've recently discovered that I love clove scents, so had to try a sample of this one. In the bottle I'm hit with the ylang ylang and then clove, not getting the sugar as an extra note, more just an overall sweetness. I love the way the clove sticks to me on drydown, with the ylang ylang behind it hitting the back of my nose. Right next to my skin the floral is stronger with that spicy clove alongside. Lasts a while with the floral fading to become kind of a mild accent on the sweet clove. This is a keeper for me, and I want to try layering with some ginger-forward scents when we head into autumn.
