    Real talk

    This is a discontinued chypre that smells like someone who read the room before entering it. The carnation is the tell, it's there, it's not subtle, and it either gets you or it doesn't.Eau de Caron
    It's called Ambar, but don't expect the syrupy amber you're used to. This is amber for people who think they're not amber people, cool tea and green sage underneath the warmth.Ambar
