    Real talk

    The immortelle keeps Idillio from becoming another smooth amber. There's a slight dissonance here, herbal, almost bitter, that makes this worth wearing instead of just smelling nice.Idillio
    Some amber fragrances announce themselves. Ambre Noir doesn't, it arrives, makes itself at home, and stays past midnight. The vanilla adds sweetness without softness.Ambre Noir
