    Moderate sillage isn't a flaw. It's a preference. Sofia wants to be discovered by whoever's beside you, not announced to a room. The musky-woody warmth stays close, skin-warm, intimate.Sofia
    The mineral edge isn't for everyone, and that's exactly the point. Rosenrot Intense trades rose's usual softness for something with a metallic spine. If you've been searching for a rose that bites.Rosenrot Intense
