    Real talk

    This is a dark, resinous beast that loves cool weather. The truffle note in the heart is divisive, but if you appreciate earthy complexity, this delivers. Skip for summer office wear.Patchouli Noir
    If you want something that opens like sunshine and mellows into a camp fire, this delivers. The Ambroxan gives it that smooth, skin-close amber quality that people love, but the citrus and smoke keep.Imagination
