    Real talk

    This one does not announce itself. The orange blossom and jasmine open with elegance, but it is the almond and heliotrope heart that feels like the real character, and the incense drydown that earns.Captive
    Sintra is not a skin scent. The opening projects confidently, and the drydown lingers for hours. If citrus-floral sweetness appeals, this one delivers without apology.Sintra
