    Real talk

    It's not subtle, and that's the point. The opening punches through with saffron's metallic bite before the rose softens it, but only halfway. By the time the oud settles.Al Buraq
    Epic Woman is not a polite fragrance. The cumin in the opening makes it polarizing by design. Once you survive the first twenty minutes, what remains is a regal, incense-laden Oriental that performs.Epic Woman
