Real talk
This is the fragrance that makes you realize you've been reaching for the safe choice. Leather, iris, suede, familiar materials, but arranged with quiet authority.Checkmate
This fragrance asks you to commit. The leather-violet combination is old-school Dior masculine, confident, a little formal, unapologetically bold. If that's not your moment, pass.Fahrenheit
