    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
    The opening of Pale Blue Eyes arrives with a crisp, almost austere quality, citrus and blackcurrant creating a cool initial impression that feels deliberately restrained.Pale Blue Eyes
