    Real talk

    If smoky leather makes you nervous, walk past this one. For everyone else: the somali frankincense does something rare, it's incense that smells expensive, not ecclesiastical.Black Incense Malaki
    Bold leather fragrance for someone who wants a scent that walks into a room and fills it before you've finished introducing yourself. The osmanthus and ylang-ylang keep it from being one-dimensional.Qaa'ed Al Shabaab
