    Rose and anise don't typically share real estate, but here they work together. The blackberry keeps everything soft while the anise keeps it interesting.Imari Queen
    Tuberose gets a bad reputation for being screechy or sunscreen-linear. Not here. Vetiver and incense give it backbone, something to lean against. The result is a tuberose that flirts but has opinions.So Elixir Purple Eau de Parfum
