    Real talk

    Here's the thing about Subversif: it's the fragrance that says something. Not loud, but present. The tobacco and patchouli give it weight, the fig keeps it from taking itself too seriously.Subversif
    Reflection Man is not trying to shout over anyone in the room. It is a quiet confidence wrapped in aromatic herbs, soft florals, and creamy woods. The pepper note keeps things interesting without.Reflection Man
