    A proper chypre needs a backbone. The bergamot and clary sage up top are the light, the civet and leather down below are the shadow. No tricks, no dilution.La Lumière
    This is one for people who want scent to mean something. Not perform. Mean something. Carrot seed and cumin open with an earthy honesty that reads more spiritual than sexy.Peinture d'Homme
