    Real talk

    Honey-peony sweetness doesn't usually come with a coriander backbone. That's the move here, the floral-fruity heart stays gorgeous, but the herb keeps it from floating away into something forgettable.Daring
    This is the fragrance for someone who doesn't wait to be noticed. The ginger opens bold and electric, but the honey-amber base is what lingers. It stays close to the skin, warm and memorable.Illicit
