    Ein Traum 🥰

    The nose is a pure delight. A blend of Jamaican crossed with Foursquare and mhoba high ester, wow.the palate on the other hand is a little disappointing compared to the nose because we lose a lot of aroma between the two.overall the value for money remains very good, a good surprise!
