    Real talk

    This isn't a fragrance that asks permission. The frankincense-forward structure leans into warmth, not safety. Coffee and vanilla pull you in, frankincense holds you there.Reception
    Performance is serious here, expect 10-14 hours on skin with strong projection for the first three. It elevates the original to a more intense, luxurious experience.Layton Exclusif
