    Real talk

    Keig is not trying to impress anyone in the room. It is a quiet fragrance for someone who wants to smell clean and present without announcing it. The performance is moderate, which suits the mood.Keig
    Vetiver is one of perfumery's most misunderstood notes. Too often it plays a supporting role, the earthiness that grounds a floral or a tobacco blend. Vetiver puts the material front and center.Vetiver
