    Real talk

    Some fragrances want to fill the room. This one wants to be found. The iris-ambroxan pairing rewards proximity over projection, and that is precisely the point.Prelude
    You won't find this fragrance across the room. It's built for proximity, for the moment someone leans in and asks. The iris never shouts, it unfolds. That quietness is the whole point.Bois d'Iris
