    Real talk

    Here's the thing about star anise in a cologne: it either pulls you in or it doesn't. This one leans into that green, almost medicinal sweetness, the kind that reads as anise in the air but smells.Mistral Patchouli
    The name misleads. Nothing orange about it, Orage means storm, and vetiver with patchouli is how Louis Vuitton gets there. Wearers call it petrichor in a bottle. Not aquatic.Orage
