Deep in Aztec Mexico, Serge Lutens leads us in the footsteps of the conquistador Hernan Cortés and his discovery of the most heavenly nectar, vanilla.
The wood is sharp and burnt at the edges while the sweetness of the vanilla is enveloping and rich.
A delicious, wood-scented journey into the heart of a forgotten civilization.
To paraphrase Freud, it is not evil that is full of regrets, but good.
Both the devil and vanilla as well as black.
No sentimentality here!
Inside each of us, this sweetness becomes stronger and more refined thanks to the contrasting wood notes.
