    Real talk

    The pink pepper keeps it from going full masculinity. The vetiver keeps it from going full florals. What you get is a unisex spice that actually earns the label, warm enough for autumn.Pink Vetiver
    This fragrance does not announce itself. Bergamot and vetiver give it structure, but the florals keep it from feeling austere. It works best when you want to smell present without screaming.Bal d'Afrique
