CD is thickly sweet vanilla with dark facets that are a little musky and resinous. I definitely pick up some Kashmir and Black Amber, but not so much any spice or bite. It’s almost a sibling scent to Black Vanilla Embalming Spice, but elevated and mature, and definitely less foodie. It has a very “NAVA” feel to the incense aspect.
