    Real talk

    Gourmand fragrances usually play it safe. Upside Down doesn't. The rum and vanilla are bold, almost confrontational, but the tobacco and cinnamon keep it from becoming a sugar bomb.Upside Down
    Bold sweetness with a spicy kickback, tonka and vanilla carry the weight but saffron and davana keep it from tipping into dessert territory. It's warm without being heavy.Carlisle
