    Real talk

    This isn't a fragrance that asks permission. The whiskey note gives it an edge, boozy, confident, slightly unconventional. Some will find that divisive. Most won't care what those people think.Ambre
    Roma feels like standing in a Roman piazza at midday. The citrus and herbal opening is brisk and confident, but the drydown with its sandalwood and oakmoss is where this fragrance earns its status.Roma (Eau de Toilette)
