Real talk
Rosewood has an edge, the oud arrives faster and sharper than expected, and that green geranium doesn't fade politely. But that's the point. This isn't a rose fragrance pretending to be subtle.Rosewood
Most fruity-florals play it safe. Dark Purple doesn't, plum and orange open bright, but the dark rose and patchouli pull the whole thing somewhere deeper.Dark Purple
