Plum blossoms and fruit drenched in brandy with a touch of vetiver,
nutmeg, tabac, and bourbon vanilla.

In bottle: Plums and so much brandy.
First impression on skin: Mostly plums and brandy. It's not so much dark as heavy, with none of the bright tartness that fruit sometimes has. Plum blossoms add a little clean lightness on top. It's very strong. People tend to assume fruit scents are feminine, but to me this is VERY masculine, which is unsurprising given the inspiration!
Dry: Fruity, sweetened more by the vanilla. Still pretty similar to when I first put it on.
After half an hour: The plums and brandy are overpowering the vetiver, nutmeg, and tabac, but I can tell they're there. At this point it could be more unisex.
It's almost too masculine for me, but I won't let that stop me. I might have to dilute it though, because I used just a tiny drop and it was really strong. I'll set it aside for a couple of months and see if it improves.

Flowering Plum Twig is a pretty spring scent, I just wish that it lasted more than an hour on me. 
Dark, sweet plum fruit, subtle vanilla, and hints of spiced, dark tobacco and breezy plum blossom (but only small hints that waver in and out of the scent to me).  I was worried about the brandy, but nothing here strikes me as alcoholic or harsh.  The plum smells like black plum to me, but perhaps a bit sweeter.  It's juicy, dark, and luscious.
I liked this enough to track down a partial bottle, but I have so many other plum scents that last all day on me, so I'm not sure how much wear this one will get.
