A drier, woodier reworking with cocoa and resin threaded through the spice. Less sweet and more austere than the original, but still warm. Smoky and composed.

Projection, risk and texture describe how a fragrance behaves in a room and on skin. Where wear reports are thin, those scores rest near the middle by design, so a mid-range reading here is a statement about the evidence as much as about the scent. Warmth and sweetness are derived from composition and do not carry that caveat.
