    Real talk

    The goji berry in a perfume is unusual enough to make people lean in. Star anise adds a faint aniseed whisper in the heart that some either love or find puzzling.Goji
    Talisman is discontinued, which tells you something. A 1994 Balenciaga that still has people hunting for it decades later. The aldehydes give it that vintage edge.Talisman
