In plain words

The main accords of Opus XIV Royal Tobacco are amber and sweet. It opens with Olibanum and Anise, reveals Tobacco and Licorice at its heart, and dries down to Olibanum and Myrrh. It lasts very long and projects strongly; people reach for it in autumn and winter, mostly in the evening.
