    What a lovely and original scent! Finally, I have my little bottle of the Caribbean Pirates edition of this dense, decadent elixir. Looking at this little flask, which seems rescued from Captain Hook’s ship at the bottom of the ocean, I can’t help but wonder a few things. What do pirates eat? I suppose the poor souls are eating fish continuously, and I doubt milk keeps well, so I hope this dessert note is taken into account; perhaps it is that rum that keeps everything fresh for longer. I can only imagine the delight of eating this after so much fish. Overall, I am very pleased with my curiosity shop artefact; a scent that, as a gourmand lover, I simply adore, with an astonishing concentration.

  2. I was gifted this bottle with a wax seal and strings on the cap, which doesn’t match the current photo as the packaging has changed; the string version was a limited edition. I absolutely love it, especially when dry: it’s sweet without being cloying, smells fantastic, lasts a long time, and I’m sure nobody will mind it. It’s unisex, though I see it more as unisex/masculine. If you try it, you’ll adore it for cold days.

  3. I received this bottle with a wax seal and strings on the cap; it differs from the photo because the bottle has changed, although it’s the same fragrance. The one with the strings was a limited edition. I adore it particularly when dry: it’s sweet without being cloying and leaves a lovely scent. The longevity is excellent, and I doubt anyone would dislike it. It’s unisex, though I perceive it more as unisex/masculine. If you give it a try, you’ll surely love it for chilly weather.
