    Real talk

    It calls itself light. It's not. The honey isn't sunny, it's thick, amber-dark, closer to warm honeycomb. Beeswax and benzoin anchor everything deep into skin.Bois Lumière
    Slowdive smells like summer condensed into a bottle. The orange blossom neroli opening is gorgeous, but the real story is that beeswax tobacco heart. It is rich without being heavy, sweet without.Slowdive
