The heart develops through ginger, mint, and sage, creating a fresh herbal character with a lightly spicy edge. Amber, patchouli, and musk form the drydown, giving the composition warmth, depth, and a smooth woody impression. The fragrance is recognized for its unusual coffee-centered opening and its transition into a restrained amber and patchouli base. It has developed a loyal following among enthusiasts who regard it as one of Montblanc's more distinctive masculine releases."
