    Real talk

    Birch tar doesn't ask permission. It arrives with smoke, charred wood, and the kind of leather that tells you something happened. Some will find it too much. Most will find it doesn't let go.Hyde
    This is a fragrance that asks you to commit. The opening honey feels gorgeous, but the castoreum-leather drydown is not for the faint of heart. If you want a gentle floral, look elsewhere.The Lover's Tale
