    Real talk

    The oud arrives early in the development, emerging alongside the incense rather than waiting for a late drydown. If you've been hunting for a fragrance that announces itself before you reach for it.Nº 8 Myrrh Blood-Drop
    It is sweet. It is warm. It wears like a cashmere blanket doused in rum. The vanilla-rum interplay is not subtle, but it works. If you want restraint, look elsewhere. This is unabashed indulgence.Van Py Rhum
