    Real talk

    The name says spicy. The scent says cozy. Three peppers lead the opening, but the real story is what comes next, beeswax, honey, and a licorice that goes salty before it goes sweet.Poivre Piquant
    Most people encounter it once and immediately know where they stand. That anise opening is not subtle. But underneath the star and the spice sits something warm, milk and caramel and vanilla.Le Feu d'Issey
