    Real talk

    Boozy oriental with serious depth. Rum and oud together isn't common, it reads older, more deliberate, like a vintage find at a Bangkok market. If you want something safe, look elsewhere.Sayat Nova
    No top notes means no delay. You get vanilla and guaiac wood immediately, and they stay. If you want a fragrance that announces itself with citrus or bergamot first, this skips that entirely.Memoirs Of A Trespasser
