    Real talk

    If you've dismissed powdery florals as delicate, Malabar 2017 might recalibrate that. The iris here isn't shy. It wears leather in its drydown like it grew up there.Malabar 2017
    Dior Homme Parfum takes the original and amps the intensity. The iris feels richer, the leather deeper, and the oud gives it serious weight. This is Dior Homme for men who have arrived.Dior Homme Parfum
