    Real talk

    There's a specific kind of woman who wears this. Not loud about it. Has opinions about what goes on her body. Le B doesn't announce itself, it waits for you to notice, and then you're glad you did.Le B
    This is unapologetically floral. The opening bursts with green-citrus energy before tuberose and jasmine take over. Clove and nutmeg add unexpected warmth.5th Avenue
