    Real talk

    This is aldehydic rose doing what aldehydic rose does best, going straight for something old-fashioned and refusing to apologize for it. The honey and animalic notes aren't shy.Iquitos
    Maai doesn't court an audience, it simply projects hard enough that the audience comes to it. The aldehydic brightness pulls you in, but the civet, resins, and musk are what make you stay.Maai
