    Real talk

    This fragrance doesn't whisper. It doesn't arrive politely or build toward anything. It projects, bold, present, and relentless. The sweet honey opens doors the dark florals walk through.Poison
    This is a proper 1990s powerhouse. The galbanum opening might surprise those expecting typical florals, but the heart delivers generous white florals that justify its cult status.Jil Sander No. 4
