NOTES:
White Pepper | Cinnamon Sugar | Suede (Buttery)
A cautiously presented, tightly huddled profile. Although not delineated or complex, remains pleasing. Maybe even ingratiating. Smooth. The cinnamon sugar is reminiscent of cold cereal. There's also a definite sweet instant flavored coffee vibe. Scans like a breakfast followed by a brunch sugar crash.
White pepper tightens it up well, staves off cloying. Makes for a very plainly smokeable thing. So much so that it seems sorta to (quite-quickly) smoke itself. Big white clouds don't offer much aroma but are pleasant to watch pass overhead. Ash is dry, flaky. Seems a bit under-stuffed. But man, I could go for another.
