    Real talk

    Green chypre fragrances divide opinion by design. This one doesn't try to win you over in the first minute. The ones who love it are loyal, and that's what makes it worth knowing. The ones who don't?Balmain de Balmain
    Fleurs de Bois flips what you expect. Birch and vetiver open the fragrance, woods arrive before florals. Then jasmine and rose slip through the green canopy, almost an afterthought.Fleurs de Bois
