Quite lemon wedge sour forward. Some white then black peppercorn. Dusty. Gritty-throaty. Undertones are difficult to pull out from those primaries. Sand, a bit of suede, table suger but not a balancing 'nuff. Bright af. Finish shows a lightly roasted coffee addition to top-notes.
Very crisp, almost starched pleated pants profile. No complexities, an almost annoying deeply entrenched sourness. Lots of pointed corners.
Burns on an even line at a slowing from gate-to-wire pace; moderately all told. Some loosening of seam happens ahead of char. Mandates a rather large re-touch at mid-point. Excellent smoke out-put culminates in a mute yet sharp somewhat floral room-note on a patent leather thing.
