    This is not the Kerosene you might expect. It trades stamped steel for honeyed sweetness without losing its edge. Black tea keeps it honest.Unknown Pleasures
    Soft enough to be intimate, interesting enough to be remembered. Powdery iris, warm spices, and oolong tea. Quiet, with an edge. It opens bright with bergamot and settles into something more.Creative Inspiration
