Our take

The vodka note runs thin here, lacking the crisp bite that would make the alcohol feel refreshing rather than simply sharp. It sits awkwardly among the fruit, never quite blending into the background the way a true spirit accord should.

Red berries and mandarin orange tumble over tomato leaf and thyme in a backyard where someone has just sliced citrus on a wooden table. Cassis deepens the fruit without weighing it down, while birch adds a dry, smoky edge that keeps the air from turning too sweet. The leather accord is faint, more of a suggestion than a statement, and the whole scene stays light on the skin as the sun warms the planks underfoot.

A breeze moves through the space, carrying the fresh spicy accords and the green edges of the leaves. The aroma feels casual and unpolished in a way that suits a morning spent outside with bare feet and a cold drink nearby. It is not a refined composition, but the roughness fits the setting, where nothing needs to be perfect and the air smells of wood and fruit in equal measure.

The glass catches the light as another slice of mandarin falls onto the plate, the berries rolling slightly toward the edge while the thyme releases its scent into the warm air
