    The nose is a delightful bouquet of desserts and floral goodness. My first impression is strong custard, cookies and butterscotch. Mixed in with that are tiny rose petals sprayed with lavender mist. One… read more

    What started out as a nice date with a pleasant friend, soon dwindled & became disheartening! The nose actually started floral and turned slightly sweet & citrusy w/alcohol lingering; nice way to set the… read more

    When I opened the cap and sniffed, it had the sweet scent of corn whiskey. I looked the label over to see if it was a Bourbon emulation. There was little or no peatiness, which added to the corny fl… read more
