    Real talk

    The melon-guava opening reads to some as sweet. That's part of the point. This smells like summer distilled, concentrated, made portable. Hyperreal. Carnival-sweet.Coney Island
    Artisan is not a polite fragrance. The citrus opening is aggressive, almost confrontational, and that rawness is precisely the point. If you want subtlety, look elsewhere.Artisan
