Fish That Swims Report post Posted November 7, 2016 Mince pie, dark beer, a well-loved spruce wood fiddle, and bow resin. Bought a bottle off the Lab's Etsy! First off...in the bottle this is intense! Rich, dark, sweet, woodsy, "meaty". Mmmmm fantastic. Buttery spices, a dark caramel-ly chewy beer, and a warm comforting woodsiness. On skin, a lot of the buttery pie note recedes. The woods bring a tiny bit of fresh coolness forward with the rosin. Still spicy--cloves, which my skin is good at finding. I LOVE this. Festive but mellow, evocative and complex. This scent feels like it has a history. I don't think of a lively ball, rather an old low-ceilinged pub where good friends have gathered for a pint for centuries: warmth and comfort within, cold winds without.
