    Real talk

    Sycomore doesn't announce itself. It arrives beside you, already at home. The vetiver is smoky and assured, this is vetiver for someone who knows vetiver, and for someone who thinks they don't.Les Exclusifs de Chanel Sycomore
    The name is literal. This smells like ink on paper in a cold room. Cypress up front is greener than expected, and vetiver stays close to the skin for hours. Cashmere wood is subtle in the base.Encre Noire
