    Real talk

    Fragonard's approach here is almost confrontational in its simplicity, no fireworks, no trick notes, just citrus doing exactly what citrus should. The melon in the heart is the quiet left hook nobody.Concerto
    The opening citrus is sharp. Some people want that brightness to last all day. It doesn't. And honestly? That's the point. The drydown is where Quercus becomes itself, warm, mossy, close.Quercus
