    Real talk

    An oud for people who think they don't like oud. It keeps the resinous depth but strips the heaviness, Bulgarian rose lifts the whole composition into something unexpectedly clean. Controversial take?Agarwoud
    Noir de Noir leans harder into earth than into sweetness. The black rose is beautiful, but the truffle and oud make it feel nocturnal rather than romantic.Noir de Noir
