    Real talk

    This one doesn't project so much as it surrounds you. A creamy, lactonic vanilla that wears close, not shy, just particular about its audience. The opening bursts with sweet, milky warmth.Dusk I
    Roma feels like standing in a Roman piazza at midday. The citrus and herbal opening is brisk and confident, but the drydown with its sandalwood and oakmoss is where this fragrance earns its status.Roma (Eau de Toilette)
