    Real talk

    If you want a fragrance that smells like a Venetian palazzo in autumn, this is it. Black cherry and clove create a cozy, opulent feel, but the iris in the drydown keeps it from being overly sweet.Duchessa
    If you're looking for a quiet, unobtrusive vanilla, this isn't it. The strawberry brings a sweetness that announces itself without shouting. It's the kind of fragrance that makes people lean in.Vanile
