    Real talk

    This is the fragrance that divides rooms, not because it's loud, but because it's honest. The costus root and that blood note create something animalic, almost feral. It doesn't perform for you.Bull's Blood
    The incense and spice up front might surprise but give it a moment. The florals bloom into something unexpectedly plush and the drydown is genuinely cozy.Matador
