Real talk
Honey fragrances can feel sticky, medicinal even. Honey & Crocus sidesteps that. The honey reads closer to warm hay, muted, gentle. The almond milk makes it creamy without cloying.Honey & Crocus
Hypnotic Poison is not for those who fear being noticed. The opening is aggressive and gourmand, but give it time. The drydown vanilla-sandalwood base is the real prize, and it rewards patience.Hypnotic Poison
