This scent is described PERFECTLY. It completely matches all the scent notes listed. First you get the slightly bitter, slightly sweet musky black tea, followed by sharp citrus, then spicy smoke, the delicate creamy/powdery cocoa notes, and lastly the sweet powdery florals.
But what it brought forth for me was a memory of my childhood, shopping for traditional Indian-wear at the shops on Gerrard street - tea percolating in the backroom, the floral garlands around the shop, the citrus and rose incense sticks burning, the soft, powdery smells of chiffon and silk...
I popped it in a perfume oil for my sister at 20% and she said she was transported back to her time in India when she wore it. This one does much better in perfume oil than alcohol - the warming scent notes come through beautifully in oil, but smell a bit sharper in an alcohol medium.
I suspect this would be excellent in a candle or incense cones.
