    Real talk

    Nuit D'Ylang earns its name. The opening is all star anise, sharp, medicinal, anise-forward in a way that stops people in their tracks. If that's not your thing, look elsewhere.Nuit D'Ylang
    Lavs is not interested in being liked. It opens confrontational and stays spiritual. If you want something polite, look elsewhere. This is incense-draped drama for those who understand that fragrance.Lavs
