    Real talk

    The green tea in the base is what separates this from the pack, vegetal, slightly bitter, unmistakably calm. It doesn't project hard, but it lasts. Think of it as a soft touch that doesn't need to.Shibumi
    Not a cozy vanilla fragrance. The opening is strange and almost industrial before softening into something genuinely tender.Warm Bulb
