    Real talk

    The name is earnest, and the fragrance is too, but that's the draw. No irony, no edge. Just caramel and vanilla done with enough patchouli underneath that it doesn't smell like frosting.I Love Dreaming
    The rose doesn't ask permission. Neither does the patchouli. Together they build a presence that arrives before you've entered the room, yet somehow the vanilla keeps it from ever being too much.Midnight Poison
