    Real talk

    The blackcurrant in Malena is what catches people off guard. It's tart, green, and carries the smell of stems being cut rather than the sweet berry notes found in more conventional fragrances.Malena
    If you want instant compliments, look elsewhere. Dune rewards patience and draws you in slowly. The aldehydes might seem dated at first spray but evolve beautifully.Dune
