    Real talk

    Absinthe is the fragrance for people who found the original too beautiful to drink. Bitter, bohemian, and unafraid of its own edge, this isn't a safe blind buy.Absinthe
    This is the fragrance for someone who wants vetiver and nothing else. No florals to soften it, no sweetness to apologize for. Just the dry, earthy depth of roots and bark.Encre Noire
