Real talk
This fragrance does not announce itself. Bergamot and vetiver give it structure, but the florals keep it from feeling austere. It works best when you want to smell present without screaming.Bal d'Afrique
Not performing. Just present. Ego Stratis skips the theater of projection for something quieter, the kind of scent someone wears when they don't need to prove anything. Clean, marine, close.Ego Stratis
