Real talk
Built for the person who doesn't need a room to notice them. Vetiver roots, blackwood, resin, the kind of woody that gets under your skin before you realize you've been wearing it all day.Grenadille d'Afrique
The name is literal. This smells like ink on paper in a cold room. Cypress up front is greener than expected, and vetiver stays close to the skin for hours. Cashmere wood is subtle in the base.Encre Noire
