    Real talk

    There's a time in every drink when the gin overtakes the vermouth. That's this fragrance. Unapologetic juniper, unapologetic spice. It doesn't hide what it is.Baie de Genievre
    This is the fragrance for someone who wants vetiver and nothing else. No florals to soften it, no sweetness to apologize for. Just the dry, earthy depth of roots and bark.Encre Noire
