    Real talk

    Honey-tobacco-vanilla is a bold move, sweet enough to pull you in, but the tobacco keeps it from being a dessert. This is the fragrance for someone who wants warmth without softness.1981X
    Herod is a statement piece. If you want subtlety, look elsewhere. The tobacco and incense heart is what people will remember you by, and the vanilla drydown keeps them leaning in.Herod
