    Real talk

    Sweet and savory in one bottle shouldn't work. It does. The yuzu-vanilla opening is bright and unexpected, but the ginger-pimento drydown is where this earns its name.Umami
    In 1994, Dior's Pierre Bourdon built this for someone who wants warmth without sacrificing elegance. The fruit-spice combo is distinctive, not safe. Sweet enough to make you smell good.Dolce Vita
