    Real talk

    The mangrove wood note is polarizing for a reason, it smells like something pulled from a swamp and left to dry in the sun. But paired with saffron and leather, it becomes something worth wearing.Bois de Mangrove
    Saffron plus praline is an unexpected pairing that could skew too sweet for some. The drydown saves it, pulling back toward leather and wood. Worth sampling before committing.Born for Eternity
