    Real talk

    Strong. Smoky. Unapologetically animalic. Sacred Tobacco doesn't ask permission, it simply arrives. Castoreum, civet, and two tobacco absolutes deliver the real thing, not a safer version of it.Sacred Tobacco
    This is a fragrance that asks you to commit. The opening honey feels gorgeous, but the castoreum-leather drydown is not for the faint of heart. If you want a gentle floral, look elsewhere.The Lover's Tale
