The story

Abu Dhabi opens the way the Gulf does in late afternoon — citrus and green cardamom cutting through heat, olibanum drifting somewhere behind. Memo built this one around the resinous side of the Arabian peninsula, then softened it with date and plum until the spice reads generous rather than sharp.
