Real talk
This is oakmoss doing what oakmoss used to do, building a real chypre structure instead of playing second fiddle to cashmeran and ambroxan. Not for those who want their fragrances to apologize.George
This is the fragrance for someone who wants vetiver and nothing else. No florals to soften it, no sweetness to apologize for. Just the dry, earthy depth of roots and bark.Encre Noire
