    Real talk

    Saffron at this intensity isn't for the cautious. If you've been burned by synthetic spices before, this changes things. M.H Gerashi went bold, and the 8-10 hour longevity means there's no walking.Saffron Extrait
    Memoir Woman is uncompromising. The absinthe and clove make it aggressive at first, and the oakmoss drydown is unapologetically vintage. This is not a safe blind buy.Memoir Woman
