Real talk
Maai doesn't court an audience, it simply projects hard enough that the audience comes to it. The aldehydic brightness pulls you in, but the civet, resins, and musk are what make you stay.Maai
The opening is a little grumpy. Bitter, medicinal, coniferous, not what most people expect from a label like this. But that sharpness is the point. Give it two wears before you decide.Asagiri
