    Real talk

    Not a crowd-pleaser. A quiet one. Incense and myrrh together is an ancient combination, but this wears like a secret, close. The scent has depth and presence.Aurum
    This is saffron done with real intent. The opening is deliberately abrasive, almost challenging, which is Byredo's way. The leather heart saves it, and the vetiver drydown is where it actually.Black Saffron
