    Real talk

    This fragrance does something most won't: it opens with rain and stays there. No sharp citrus pivot, no sweet rescue. Just the full honest freshness of a garden that just drank.After Rain
    This fragrance does not announce itself. Bergamot and vetiver give it structure, but the florals keep it from feeling austere. It works best when you want to smell present without screaming.Bal d'Afrique
