The longevity will surprise you. Hours into wearing Royal Secret, the herbs are still present, still assertive over the powdery drydown. The woody base holds firm.Royal Secret
Not for those chasing novelty. The honey here carries a certain honesty, sweet but with intent. Carnation adds unexpected spice. This is a classic oriental that knows exactly what it is.Toujours Moi
